## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Crypto Drainer

## DETECTION EVIDENCE

Fingerprint: 75c6cbeae36a58c7b4cf3f97c194f45e3e1837d1d0bfef454bf507831cd9b612

## 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: 2026-06-07 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-06-14 14:29:52 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Last verified:     2026-06-28 08:20:34 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-16 00:46:19 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-25 17:49:04 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain is flagged as an active cryptocurrency wallet drain phishing site. Analysis indicates rossswap.com impersonates legitimate decentralized exchange platforms to deceive users into entering wallet recovery phrases, private keys, or signing malicious transactions. Once credentials are captured, attackers immediately drain funds from connected wallets, often within minutes of compromise. The site employs social engineering tactics such as fake swap interfaces, urgent transaction prompts, and spoofed error messages to manipulate victims into disclosing sensitive information.  Infrastructure analysis reveals rossswap.com was registered on June 07, 2026, through DYNADOT LLC, an uncommon creation date that may indicate domain age spoofing or a registration error. The domain resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3, part of Cloudflare’s network (AS13335), which is frequently abused for phishing due to its anonymity and DDoS protection features. VirusTotal detection shows 2 out of 95 security vendors currently flag the domain, while it appears on four independent security blocklists, including cryptocurrency-specific threat feeds. The SSL certificate, issued by Google Trust Services (WE1), provides HTTPS encryption but does not validate legitimacy, as phishing sites commonly use valid certificates to appear trustworthy.  Users who visited rossswap.com should assume their wallet credentials or transaction data may be compromised. Immediately disconnect any connected wallets from the site using a trusted device. Revoke all active smart contract approvals and token allowances associated with the wallet via a blockchain explorer or security tool. Transfer remaining funds to a new wallet with a fresh recovery phrase, and monitor all connected accounts for unauthorized transactions. If credentials were entered, consider the original wallet permanently compromised. Report the domain to cryptocurrency security platforms and blocklist providers to prevent further victimization. Future access should be blocked at the network level using host file modifications or DNS filtering.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       f9e115b099ce140fbe04ccbe4fc49258
TLS cert SHA-256:      75c6cbeae36a58c7b4cf3f97c194f45e3e1837d1d0bfef454bf507831cd9b612

## 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.
