## 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
----------------------------------------------------------------

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-05-18 15:12:24 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies teams-workplace.live as an active phishing domain impersonating Microsoft Teams, currently under investigation by the SOC team. This domain represents a generic phishing threat that could lead to credential harvesting and account takeover if accessed by employees or customers.

This domain was flagged by 1 of 95 VirusTotal vendors, registered via Unstoppable Domains Inc on May 15, 2026, and resolves to IP 34.42.100.71 using a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate, indicating a low but credible threat level at this stage. No blocklist hits were recorded as of the latest scan, underscoring the need for immediate proactive defense.

Teams-workplace.live remains active and must be blocked at the firewall and DNS level to prevent access. We recommend updating blocklists, disabling access via proxy rules, and conducting user awareness training focusing on recognizing Teams impersonation lures. Monitor logs for connections to 34.42.100.71 and inspect outbound SSL traffic to detect potential exfiltration or post-compromise callbacks.

  - Public blocklists: now listed on 3 feeds

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       2ec9e6a4446f02f524f843913fd9444e
TLS cert SHA-256:      f34c88bd211cf40126c53918f7e7a34a6f31b4923fd8b30d6e38f123a5a4e47d

## 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.
