## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      2606:4700:3031::6815:473b (US, San Francisco)

## 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.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-19 01:58:54 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies payai.allocation.finance as a high-risk phishing domain targeting Solana users. This fraudulent site masqueraded as the legitimate PayAI Network offering airdrops to lure victims. Its primary danger lies in stealing cryptocurrency assets by draining wallets connected to the site, putting users’ funds at severe risk.

The phishing attack employed a Solana drainer kit hosted via Cloudflare, resolving to an IPv6 address. By impersonating Solana’s brand, the domain tricked victims into authorizing transactions or providing private keys under the guise of an airdrop event. Once credentials or wallet access were compromised, attackers could rapidly empty victims’ crypto holdings. The domain was flagged by 11 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors and appeared on one security blocklist before being taken offline.

If you visited payai.allocation.finance, immediately disconnect any wallets linked to the site and revoke all associated permissions. Change passwords and enable two-factor authentication on your crypto accounts. Monitor your wallet activity for unauthorized transactions and consider transferring remaining funds to a secure wallet. Stay vigilant by verifying official sources and never share private keys or seed phrases. PhishDestroy urges users to report suspicious crypto domains to help protect the community.

## 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.
