## 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: 2026-03-24 01:17:18 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies pmcpump.fun as a brand impersonation domain targeting the legitimate Pump.fun service. The site presented itself under the page title "PUMP.FUN PMC - SUPREME MILITARY OVERLORDS," attempting to mimic the brand's identity to lure unsuspecting users. Its risk level remains under investigation as potential phishing tactics were employed to compromise user credentials or data.

The domain pmcpump.fun was registered on February 21, 2026, through NameCheap, Inc., and resolved to the IP address 162.0.209.170. Despite appearing on one security blocklist, VirusTotal scans show zero detections across 95 antivirus engines, indicating it has not yet been flagged widely by security vendors. Gridinsoft assigned the site a low trust score of 0/100, reinforcing suspicions about its legitimacy.

Currently, pmcpump.fun is offline, mitigating immediate risk to users. PhishDestroy recommends users remain vigilant against communications referencing this domain or the Pump.fun brand outside official channels. Users should avoid clicking on links or providing personal information if encountering this domain elsewhere and report any suspicious activity to relevant authorities or security teams. Continuous monitoring is advised to detect any reactivation or related phishing attempts.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      b2e87d90d3962b349e4806f599ff81b072f3e0141603ae866b417d347363b58f

## 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.
