## 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: 2026-06-15 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-06-15 19:28:10 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Last verified:     2026-06-24 12:20:34 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-16 00:48:36 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-18 16:36:29 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain poses a specific threat of brand impersonation, targeting Trezor and aiming to deceive users into divulging sensitive information. 
   
   The evidence against this domain is substantial, with 14 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flagging it, and it has been registered through MarkMonitor Inc. since its creation on June 15, 2026. Additionally, it appears on 3 security blocklists, further solidifying its malicious nature.

   If users have visited this domain, they should take immediate action to protect themselves, as the domain's intent is to impersonate Trezor, a well-known brand, and its page title claims to be the official setup guide. Given that the domain resolves to IP 74.115.51.5 and has an SSL certificate from Let's Encrypt, users who have interacted with the site should monitor their accounts for any suspicious activity and consider changing their passwords as a precautionary measure.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       d810985ef4dc1c0bd5811e36d13c8ca3
TLS cert SHA-256:      1b4e29676aba09452fbbb418b4fb2022af0dcbfa3f470c0e661431771ab9665f

## 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.
