## 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: 2026-03-03 02:28:45 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies pumpfun-sale.xyz as a medium-risk crypto drainer domain designed to steal cryptocurrency assets. The domain impersonated the legitimate brand Pump.fun using the Angel Drainer kit to lure victims into compromising their wallets. Although the domain is currently offline, it previously appeared on multiple security blocklists, highlighting its malicious intent.

The domain was registered on July 10, 2025, through Web Commerce Communications Ltd and resolved to IP address 172.67.167.165. Despite being flagged by a small number of security vendors on VirusTotal, its presence on three separate blocklists underscores the threat posed by this infrastructure. The use of a popular drainer kit suggests a targeted campaign aimed at crypto users familiar with the Pump.fun platform.

Users are advised to remain cautious when interacting with domains resembling trusted brands, especially in the cryptocurrency space. Avoid clicking suspicious links and verify URLs carefully before entering sensitive information. Employ up-to-date security tools and monitor wallet activity regularly to mitigate potential losses from similar crypto drainer threats.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon SHA-256:       8cd6d7986d50a3c885b19e1605a804f08db026a6d7cd161b5b154c8580d88e44

## 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.
