## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------

!!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!!
NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with
illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response. Primary sources:

Page title:      swap-pan-cake.finance

## 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.

## TIMELINE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)

Last verified:     2026-04-22 13:15:58 UTC

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-03 15:15:46 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-pan-cake.finance as a high-risk generic phishing domain. The domain poses significant danger to users by attempting to deceive them into revealing sensitive information or credentials.

This domain appears on three separate security blocklists and has been flagged by multiple security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating widespread recognition of its malicious intent. Registered through a dead domain service and created recently on February 21, 2026, its infrastructure suggests deliberate use for fraudulent activities. The combination of these factors underscores the domain's phishing nature.

Currently, swap-pan-cake.finance is offline, reducing immediate risk to end users. However, users should remain vigilant and avoid visiting or interacting with this domain or any related URLs. Employing updated security solutions and monitoring for phishing attempts remain essential steps to mitigate potential threats from similar domains.

## 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.
