Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/u-sa-pionex.wixstudio.com/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 96/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Generic Phishing

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      7/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: Criminal IP, alphaMountain.ai, Cluster25, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, LevelBlue, PREBYTES
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Registrar:       GoDaddy.com, LLC
Nameservers:     ["dns1.p08.nsone.net", "dns2.p08.nsone.net", "dns3.p08.nsone.net", "dns4.p08.nsone.net"]
Page title:      404 Error: Page Not Found | Wix Studio

## 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
----------------------------------------------------------------
First detected:    2026-06-09 08:27:22 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-09 08:22:46 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-28 16:20:38 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-10 06:50:50 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-26 00:53:23 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain u-sa-pionex.wixstudio.com is assessed as an elevated-risk generic phishing infrastructure currently in an offline state. Analysis indicates it was hosted under a Wix Studio subdomain and exhibited characteristics consistent with credential harvesting or deceptive landing page deployment rather than legitimate content delivery. The current status is taken offline, with the latest observed page resolving to a 404 Error: Page Not Found | Wix Studio, suggesting removal or deactivation of the active phishing content.

Technical indicators show the domain is flagged by 7 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, reflecting moderate detection consensus across threat intelligence sources. The domain is registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC, and uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which is commonly observed in both legitimate and malicious deployments due to automated issuance. Infrastructure analysis identifies use of Wix, React, Google Cloud, Google Cloud CDN, and HTTP/3, indicating reliance on a managed SaaS hosting stack that can be rapidly repurposed for phishing campaigns. The domain appears on 3 security blocklists, specifically PhishDestroy, PhishingArmy, and OISD, reinforcing its classification as malicious or abusive infrastructure.

At present, the domain is offline, reducing immediate exposure risk; however, historical indicators suggest it may have been part of a staged or short-lived phishing operation leveraging trusted hosting platforms to bypass reputation-based filtering. Recommended mitigation includes continued DNS and URL filtering for the full subdomain pattern u-sa-pionex.wixstudio.com, monitoring for reactivation or cloned instances under similar naming schemes, and reviewing authentication logs for any credential submissions potentially associated with this endpoint. Security teams should also consider expanding detection rules for Wix Studio-hosted phishing pages, particularly those impersonating financial or trading services, and maintain blocklists for associated infrastructure fingerprints and registrar patterns linked to rapid domain turnover campaigns.

## 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.
