## 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.

## TIMELINE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Domain registered: 2026-03-15 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)

First reported:    2026-05-01 20:57:03 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-06 21:36:30 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-06 17:32:42 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-05-01 23:56:48 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies pay-heleket.cc as an active crypto-drainer phishing domain designed to steal cryptocurrency from unsuspecting users. The domain masquerades as a legitimate Helket payment portal, presenting a convincing fake login or checkout page to harvest wallet credentials and initiate unauthorized transfers. This threat is elevated due to its live status, use of HTTPS (via Let’s Encrypt), and recent infrastructure setup aimed at evading detection.  This domain was flagged by PhishDestroy with concrete evidence: VirusTotal detection ratio of 1 out of 95 security vendors, registration through Global Domain Group LLC, and a domain creation date of March 15, 2026. The infrastructure resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3, indicating recent provisioning of malicious hosting resources. Despite low initial detection, behavioral analysis confirms redirection chains typical of crypto-drainer toolkits intercepting transactions.  Users who visited pay-heleket.cc should immediately disconnect from the site, clear browser cache and cookies, and scan devices for malware. Revoke any permissions granted to wallet connections via blockchain explorers and report the domain to PhishDestroy for blocklisting. Do not interact further—this domain is part of an active campaign targeting crypto holders with drainer scripts. Protect your assets by verifying payment portals on official platforms only.

## EVIDENCE HASHES

PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260501-FB562B
Favicon MD5:       5992ab8615d80c05c446ad28fc58aa5b

## 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 (volunteer 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.
