## 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.

## TIMELINE

Domain registered: 2026-05-15 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)

First reported:    2026-06-15 06:27:20 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-07-02 04:20:34 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-05-18 02:14:14 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-18 16:58:03 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies quanfinex.live as a significant threat, specifically a fake AI assisted trading platform, designed to deceive users into revealing sensitive information or depositing funds. 
   
This domain was flagged by 4 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, and its registration through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED on May 15, 2026, raises concerns. Additionally, the domain appears on 1 security blocklist and resolves to IP 188.114.97.3, further solidifying its malicious nature.

Users who visited quanfinex.live should take immediate action to protect themselves, as they may have unknowingly exposed their personal data or downloaded malware. It is essential for them to monitor their accounts for any suspicious activity, change their passwords, and run a full system scan to detect any potential threats, considering the elevated risk level associated with this domain, now offline.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       51ef3b344a3491ba956860bebe8eaef0
TLS cert SHA-256:      3ec4d848f27167d2b818bf2f197d9cde853433bcba2acce1f55d240827298625

## 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.
