## 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: 2025-09-23 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-06-09 16:20:00 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-09 16:16:03 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-29 20:20:35 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-16 00:38:00 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-24 17:35:51 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain thecricfytv.com, registered with Dynadot Inc, presents itself as a generic phishing operation and has a high threat score of 85/100. The site is currently down, indicating it has likely been taken down due to its malicious activities. VirusTotal reports that 4 out of 95 security vendors, including alphaMountain.ai and Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, have flagged this domain as malicious, and it appears on 3 public blocklists, although Google Safe Browsing has not flagged it.

The domain was created on September 23, 2025, and first detected on June 9, 2026. The hosting IP is 188.114.96.3. The lack of brand impersonation suggests a broader phishing strategy rather than targeting specific entities. Block the domain at the perimeter and submit it to the registrar abuse desk for further investigation.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       768bbc213714ccce51beee4bc5326569
TLS cert SHA-256:      d98bca173d056eeee9737ab2b5a7628f42946767ba7aa911fc7a6aa1bbf5c81b

## 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.
