Public blocklists: listed on 2 independent blocklists
Victim re-reports (public form): 1

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      82.25.96.183 (DE, Frankfurt am Main)
ASN:             ASAS47583 AS-HOSTINGER Hostinger International Limited, CY

## 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: 2026-07-08 15:54:38 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The site transferusdt.network presented itself with the page title "USDT," indicating an attempt to impersonate the Tether (USDT) stablecoin brand. This domain posed a threat as a phishing or fraudulent platform designed to deceive users into connecting their cryptocurrency wallets or providing sensitive information, likely leading to financial theft.

Technical analysis shows the site was flagged by 8 out of 95 VirusTotal vendors, specifically by ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, CyRadar, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, and Fortinet. It appeared on 2 blocklists. The domain was registered through HOSTINGER operations, UAB, and hosted on IP address 82.25.96.183 (Germany, AS47583 Hostinger International Limited). The site has no SSL certificate and uses nameservers ns1.dns-parking.com and ns2.dns-parking.com.

The site is currently offline and in a DOWN/OFFLINE status. GridinSoft trust score is 0 out of 100, indicating high risk. The risk level is critical due to confirmed malicious detections and the impersonation of a legitimate cryptocurrency brand, posing a direct threat to user funds.

## 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.
