Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/sushi-xyo.top/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 98/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: cryptocurrency
Targeted brand: SushiSwap

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      3/95 security vendors flagged this domain

HTTP response:   530

## 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: 2026-06-18 17:58:57 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies sushi-xyo.top as a domain engaged in brand impersonation, specifically targeting the SushiSwap brand, and does not appear to utilize a drainer kit. This domain was flagged due to its malicious intent, with a VirusTotal score of 3/95, indicating that 3 out of 95 security vendors have flagged it, and it appears on 1 security blocklist, having been created on February 21, 2026. 

 The domain's creation date and blocklist status suggest a coordinated effort to deceive users, with its registrar and IP information potentially being used to track and mitigate the threat, and as of the last update, the domain has been taken offline. 

 Despite being offline, users are still advised to remain vigilant, as the threat posed by sushi-xyo.top is still considered elevated, and the unique seed 490a0a has been used to track this specific campaign, allowing for a more targeted response to the brand impersonation threat it poses, and users should continue to exercise caution when interacting with any domain that may be impersonating SushiSwap.

## 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.
