## 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 14:35:52 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain pumpgal.events presents as a technical error page reading "Worker threw exception | pumpgal.events | Cloudflare," which is a default error message rather than a functional website. This domain likely was created to host a scam or malicious operation, but is currently offline, posing no active threat to users. The site may have been intended for phishing or malware distribution, but no specific brand impersonation is indicated in the available data.

Technical evidence from VirusTotal shows 3 out of 95 security vendors flagged the domain as malicious, specifically alphaMountain.ai, G-Data, and Webroot. It appears on 2 blocklists. The domain was registered through Unstoppable Domains Inc, created on 2025-08-30, and resolves to IP address 104.21.48.1 located in the United States, associated with AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. The SSL certificate type is WE1. Nameservers are rose.ns.cloudflare.com and renan.ns.cloudflare.com.

The domain is currently down or offline, as indicated by its status. GridinSoft trust rating is 0 out of 100, and the DOM risk score is 71, indicating a high risk level. Despite these risk indicators, the site is not accessible, reducing immediate danger.

## 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.
