## 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: 2026-03-19 05:43:34 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies swap--x.fi as a medium-risk crypto drainer domain primarily targeting cryptocurrency wallets through Wallet Connect abuse. The domain was created recently on February 17, 2025, and was designed to impersonate legitimate crypto services, as indicated by its page title "SwapX." This classification aligns with known drainer kits exploiting decentralized finance protocols to illicitly extract funds from victims' wallets.

Technical analysis shows swap--x.fi resolved to the IP address 146.59.69.202 and was registered via Immaterialism Ltd. Despite being flagged on 7 security blocklists, only 3 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal detected malicious activity, suggesting some evasion or novel tactics in use. The domain utilized a Wallet Connect abuse kit, a common vector for draining cryptocurrencies by compromising wallet connections and authorizations.

Currently, swap--x.fi is offline following detection and takedown efforts. Users are urged to avoid re-engaging with this domain or any related URLs. PhishDestroy recommends users revoke any suspicious wallet permissions granted recently and maintain vigilance with wallet connect prompts. Continued monitoring for similar domains employing Wallet Connect abuse vectors remains essential to protect cryptocurrency assets from emerging threats.

## EVIDENCE HASHES

Favicon SHA-256:       620eea24b0cee1d8cc8395c80f295cf2e7b6fab962493c26b49a8d42b63a4dc9

## 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.
