## 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.

Last verified:     2026-07-03 04:20:37 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-07-01 18:17:51 UTC

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-07-01 15:00:13 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 phishing infrastructure targeting users through a fake payment portal. Visitors may encounter fraudulent payment forms designed to harvest financial credentials, including credit card details or login information for banking and digital wallet services. The site mimics legitimate payment gateways, increasing the likelihood of successful deception among users expecting transaction pages.  Analysis indicates the domain startin-monpaycdn.wixstudio.com currently resolves to the IP address 34.144.206.118 and remains operational. As of the latest scan, VirusTotal reports 0 out of 95 security vendors flagging the domain, suggesting it has not yet been widely detected by automated systems. The domain is registered under Wix Studio, a platform commonly used for website hosting, which may contribute to its perceived legitimacy. No historical WHOIS data or creation date is publicly available, limiting temporal attribution.  Users who have visited startin-monpaycdn.wixstudio.com should immediately cease all interaction with the site. If credentials or payment details were entered, affected individuals must contact their financial institution to secure accounts and monitor for unauthorized transactions. Browser caches and saved passwords should be cleared to prevent persistent access by malicious actors. Network administrators are advised to block the domain and its associated IP (34.144.206.118) at the firewall level to prevent further exposure. Reporting the domain to security vendors via platforms like VirusTotal can aid in broader detection efforts.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71
TLS cert SHA-256:      4d824d023de01f229e601938edcdb7020802d167c0d85fac21c644cf194c9450

## 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 (operator 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.
