## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------

## 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.

Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-18 16:39:02 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain us-mxceapps.wixstudio.com poses a significant threat as it engages in brand impersonation, specifically targeting MEXC, a well-known cryptocurrency exchange, with the intent of deceiving users into divulging sensitive information through a fake login page. This domain does not appear to be utilizing a known drainer kit but instead focuses on social engineering to achieve its malicious goals. 
   
   PhishDestroy identifies us-mxceapps.wixstudio.com as having a VirusTotal score of 7/95, indicating that 7 out of 95 security vendors have flagged this domain as malicious, it was registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC, has an IP address that has been associated with malicious activities, was created on June 08, 2026, and is currently listed on 1 security blocklist, reinforcing its suspicious nature.

   Despite being taken offline, the risk associated with us-mxceapps.wixstudio.com remains elevated due to its ability to potentially be revived or due to the existence of similar domains that may still be active, thus, users are advised to exercise extreme caution and verify the authenticity of any website claiming to be associated with MEXC on PhishDestroy to avoid falling prey to brand impersonation and potential crypto draining, ensuring the safety of their digital assets by being vigilant and proactive in their online security practices.

## 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.
