## 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: 2026-06-29 00:56:00 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain, rivanx.xyz, has been identified as a credential phishing infrastructure targeting users through deceptive login interfaces. Analysis indicates the domain is currently offline, though prior activity suggests it was designed to harvest authentication credentials by impersonating legitimate services. No specific brand impersonation has been confirmed, but the generic phishing methodology aligns with credential theft campaigns observed in similar threat clusters.  Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 08, 2026, through NAMECHEAP INC, a registrar frequently associated with malicious domain registrations. It resolved to the IP address 188.114.97.3, which has been linked to other low-reputation hosting environments. Detection metrics show the domain was flagged by 2 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, while Gridinsoft assigned a trust score of 1 out of 100, indicating a high likelihood of malicious intent. The SSL certificate was issued by Google Trust Services, a common tactic to lend superficial legitimacy to phishing pages.  Current status confirms the domain has been taken offline, though residual risk remains due to the transient nature of such infrastructure. Organizations are advised to block the domain and associated IP at the perimeter, update endpoint detection rules to include rivanx.xyz in denylists, and monitor for related indicators of compromise. Users who may have interacted with the domain should reset credentials immediately and enable multi-factor authentication on all accounts. Proactive threat hunting for connections to 188.114.97.3 is recommended to identify potential prior exposure.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260628-01208E
Favicon MD5:       85832dd14b68f7c185518b9cae58dc90

## 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.
