## 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: 2026-04-22 15:38:10 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies rewards-metaspacechain.com as a HIGH-RISK blockchain metaverse phishing campaign actively impersonating a 3-D immersive metaverse platform. The threat involves credential harvesting through a fraudulent rewards portal to compromise cryptocurrency wallets and user funds.

This domain was flagged by 1 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, registered through Global Domain Group LLC on April 20, 2026, and resolves to IP 104.21.44.94 under a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate. The page title mimics legitimate metaverse projects to deceive visitors into entering wallet credentials or downloading malicious extensions. No evidence of inclusion on major blocklists was found at time of analysis.

Immediate mitigation is required: Users who visited this site should revoke any connected wallet permissions, scan devices for malware, and avoid downloading browser extensions promoted on the page. Block the domain at DNS and firewall levels (104.21.44.94). Report wallet addresses linked to this campaign to blockchain analysis platforms. Exercise caution with unsolicited links claiming blockchain metaverse rewards.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       7cf523082105f540683bc13454f94b25
TLS cert SHA-256:      b1c6c97513e19658497fe71be1eb6df4ec26859d17ba411b937b35b830630de6

## 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.
