## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Status: CLOSED — no report required.
This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either
the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the
operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file
for audit but no formal notice was sent.

pancakeswap-chain.live Phishing Intelligence Report - PhishDestroy

This site impersonates the PancakeSwap cryptocurrency brand and poses a threat as a cryptocurrency scam. It likely attempts to steal login credentials, private keys, or funds from users seeking the legitimate PancakeSwap decentralized exchange.

VirusTotal flagged the domain with 9 detections out of 95 security vendors. It is flagged by alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, CRDF, CyRadar, and Forcepoint ThreatSeeker. The domain is on 1 blocklist. The site is hosted on IP address 104.21.22.116, located in the United States, under AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. It was created on 2026-02-21 and uses SSL certificate type WE1.

The domain risk score is 75, indicating a high threat level. The site is currently offline/down, which prevents active exploitation but does not eliminate the risk of it being reactivated or moved to a new domain.

## SCORING METHODOLOGY
----------------------------------------------------------------
Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates:
  - VirusTotal positive ratio
  - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus,
    CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB)
  - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor)
  - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.)
  - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing
  - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts
  - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording)
  - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures)
  - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...)
  - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal)
  - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record)
  - Human researcher sign-off (operator takedown team)

A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does
NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their
first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite
score and the individual indicators above, not just VT.
