================================================================

Fetched:   2026-06-27 19:47:31 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/pionuex.wixstudio.com/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Credential Phishing

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      7/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: Criminal IP, alphaMountain.ai, Cluster25, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, LevelBlue, SOCRadar
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Registrar:       GoDaddy.com, LLC
Nameservers:     ["dns1.p08.nsone.net", "dns2.p08.nsone.net", "dns3.p08.nsone.net", "dns4.p08.nsone.net"]
Registered:      2026-06-08
Page title:      404 Error: Page Not Found | Wix Studio

## 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: 2026-06-08 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-06-09 05:25:44 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-08 18:31:37 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-27 20:20:35 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-10 06:51:25 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-26 01:14:26 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain, pionuex.wixstudio.com, was identified as a credential harvesting phishing site targeting users through deceptive login interfaces designed to mimic legitimate services. Analysis indicates the domain was constructed to capture sensitive authentication details, including usernames, passwords, and potentially multi-factor authentication codes, which could be exploited for unauthorized account access or financial fraud. The use of a Wix Studio subdomain suggests an attempt to leverage a reputable hosting platform to lend false credibility to the malicious operation.  Evidence supporting the phishing classification includes detections by 7 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, alongside its presence on one security blocklist. The domain was registered on June 08, 2026, through GoDaddy.com, LLC, and utilized infrastructure components such as Wix, React, Google Cloud, and Google Cloud CDN. The SSL certificate was issued by Let’s Encrypt, a common tactic to create an illusion of legitimacy. Despite currently displaying a 404 error page, historical analysis confirms the domain previously hosted active phishing content before being taken offline.  Users who interacted with this domain should assume their credentials were compromised. Immediate actions include resetting passwords for any accounts accessed while visiting the site, enabling multi-factor authentication where available, and monitoring linked accounts for unauthorized activity. System scans using updated security tools are recommended to detect potential secondary infections. Organizations should update their blocklists to include this domain and its associated indicators of compromise to prevent future access attempts.

## 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.
