## 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: 2026-06-22 23:05:44 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain royaleliteprivate.com masquerades as a legitimate banking site, Royal Elite Private Bank, claiming to offer personalized banking services since 1926. Despite being taken down, it was flagged by one VirusTotal vendor, highlighting its malicious nature. The domain was first detected by PhishDestroy on June 19, 2026, shortly after its creation on May 16, 2026, showcasing its relatively short-lived operation.

Registered through ENOM, INC., and hosted on IP 185.198.59.26 in Romania under AS60117 Host Sailor Ltd, the domain used a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate. This setup is typical for phishing operations aiming to establish a veneer of legitimacy. The platform risk score of 56/100 indicates a moderate level of threat, underscoring the need for vigilance against such scams.

The quick takedown of royaleliteprivate.com signifies effective intervention, yet the domain's brief active period serves as a reminder of the rapid deployment and turnover of phishing sites. The fact that only one public blocklist, PhishDestroy's, included this domain further emphasizes the importance of early detection systems in identifying threats before they proliferate widely. Such domains often exploit the time gap before antivirus databases update, allowing them to target unsuspecting users effectively in the interim.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260619-FEC7B7
Favicon MD5:       2b391d94972b47c6b0b87f72c5b43eb1
TLS cert SHA-256:      0eba0fa56addd761ce1d0b458f01035d8fa7a7aaab0ec6f8c5b455ac901382f7

## 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.
