## TLS CERTIFICATE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     Let's Encrypt / R13
Expires:    2026-07-29
Status:     INVALID chain

Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator):
  - wixstudio.com

## 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
----------------------------------------------------------------
First detected:    2026-06-12 13:34:29 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-12 13:34:29 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-29 16:20:35 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-13 00:18:23 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-25 23:16:46 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain is flagged as an elevated-risk phishing site specifically targeting cryptocurrency users through brand impersonation. Analysis indicates the threat actor created a fraudulent login portal mimicking the Bitbuy exchange, likely intended to harvest credentials for subsequent account compromise or crypto asset theft. The page title, "Log In™ | Bitbuy®® | Secure Access®®®™," exhibits deliberate misuse of trademark symbols to lend false legitimacy, a common tactic in crypto-focused phishing campaigns.

Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain resolved to IP address 34.144.206.118 and was registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC. The site appears on three security blocklists (PhishDestroy, PhishingArmy, OISD) and holds a Gridinsoft trust score of 0/100. VirusTotal reports 5/95 security vendors flagging the domain as malicious. The SSL certificate was issued by Let's Encrypt, and detected technologies include Wix hosting, React framework, Google Cloud infrastructure, Lodash, HSTS, Google Cloud CDN, and HTTP/3. The domain has since been taken offline, though historical DNS records confirm its prior operational status.

Mitigation for this specific threat type involves immediate credential rotation for any users who may have interacted with the fraudulent portal. Organizations should implement domain monitoring to detect similar impersonation attempts, particularly those leveraging cloud hosting providers (e.g., Google Cloud) and content delivery networks. Security teams are advised to block the IP address 34.144.206.118 at perimeter defenses and update phishing detection rules to account for the use of trademark symbols in page titles. Given the crypto-focused nature of this attack, additional scrutiny should be applied to internal cryptocurrency transaction processes and multi-factor authentication enforcement for exchange-related accounts.

[Updates since narrative was generated:]
  - VirusTotal detections: now 5/91 (narrative was written when count was lower)

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       f4feb61d53bc0de67557513853fa54f1
TLS cert SHA-256:      c2c2f0e645b35156ce5cf39339fbe5ae5ffb02446fe2aeb96da83b6fe9b20ad4

## 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.
