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

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      6/93 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, CyRadar, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Sophos
Public blocklists: listed on 5 independent blocklists

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      172.67.161.174 (US, San Francisco)
ASN:             ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET, US
Hosting org:     AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.

Page title:      403 Forbidden

## TLS CERTIFICATE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     WE1
Status:     INVALID chain

## 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: 2026-06-23 19:26:38 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

presale-rudi.xyz Phishing Intelligence Report - PhishDestroy

The domain presale-rudi.xyz presents a 403 Forbidden page, indicating the site is either inaccessible or deliberately blocking access. This pattern is consistent with a fraudulent presale or phishing site, likely impersonating a cryptocurrency or token presale to harvest credentials or funds. The threat posed includes credential theft, financial loss, or malware distribution through deceptive redirects.

Technical analysis reveals 6 out of 95 VirusTotal vendors flagged the site as malicious, with detections from alphaMountain.ai, CyRadar, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, and G-Data. The domain is hosted on IP 172.67.161.174, assigned to AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. in the United States. It was created on 2026-02-21, uses SSL certificate type WE1, and is listed on 5 blocklists. GridinSoft assigns a trust score of 0/100, and the DOM risk score is 70.

The site is currently down or offline, indicating it may be temporarily inactive or taken down. The risk level is high based on the domain age of less than one month, low trust score, and multiple blocklist entries. Users should avoid any interaction with this domain.

[Updates since narrative was generated:]
  - VirusTotal detections: now 6/93 (narrative was written when count was lower)

## 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 (operator 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.
