----------------------------------------------------------------
Registered:      2026-02-21

## 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.

publicai-token.xyz Phishing Intelligence Report - PhishDestroy

The domain publicai-token.xyz is a threat site that impersonates the OKX brand to conduct cryptocurrency scams. The site is designed to deceive users into believing it is a legitimate OKX platform, likely to steal login credentials, private keys, or cryptocurrency assets through fraudulent transactions.

Technical evidence shows the domain has a VirusTotal detection rate of 8 out of 95 vendors, with flags from alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, CRDF, CyRadar, and Forcepoint ThreatSeeker. It is listed on 5 blocklists and was created on 2026-02-21. The domain's risk score is 70, indicating a high threat level.

The site is currently offline and has a DOM risk score of 70. Its creation date and multi-vendor detections confirm it is a malicious domain posing a significant risk to users seeking OKX services. Immediate avoidance is recommended.

## 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.
