## 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: 2025-11-02 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)

First reported:    2025-11-21 16:10:13 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-05-30 13:20:39 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-03-01 05:14:21 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-03 03:04:56 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies phanowallet.org as a high-risk crypto drainer targeting cryptocurrency users by mimicking the legitimate Phantom Wallet. This domain was flagged by 20 of 95 security vendors and appeared on four blocklists, indicating widespread recognition of its malicious intent.

The domain resolved to IP 198.18.3.56 and was registered recently through Cloudflare, Inc. AlienVault OTX detected it in 15 threat pulses, suggesting active use in cybercrime campaigns. The domain’s creation date was November 2, 2025, pointing to a newly launched operation.

Phanowallet.org is currently offline, mitigating further risk to users. It is strongly recommended that individuals avoid interacting with any associated links or services and ensure their wallets are secured. Continuous monitoring for similar emerging threats remains essential.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon SHA-256:       d5a89e26beae0bc03ad18a0b0d1d3d75f87c32047879d25da11970cb5c4662a3
TLS cert SHA-256:      fc02247731dda0c4475c99d3b127959985df25310fc0ddc006cf5c53c65e7761

## 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.
