## 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: 2026-07-19 19:09:31 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

Is startio-ledgeapps.wixstudio.com a phishing domain?

Analysis indicates that startio-ledgeapps.wixstudio.com is presently active and registered through Wix.com Ltd. The domain resolves to the IPv4 address 34.144.206.118. It has been listed by PhishDestroy and appears on a single security blocklist, confirming that at least one reputable anti‑phishing service has taken action against it. The site has been scanned by 95 VirusTotal vendors; none have reported a detection, but the absence of a flag does not constitute evidence of benign behavior. Nameserver information is not available (NS_NOT_FOUND). The classification supplied as “generic phishing” suggests that the domain is being used to harvest credentials or other sensitive information, although the exact payload and page content have not been publicly disclosed. Defenders should treat the domain as malicious until further analysis proves otherwise. Recommended actions include adding the domain to web‑filter deny lists, monitoring DNS queries for the IP 34.144.206.118, and conducting sandbox or manual inspection of the live site if safe to do so. Continuous observation of blocklist status and any future VirusTotal updates is advised.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       f4feb61d53bc0de67557513853fa54f1
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.
