URLQuery:        100 detections
Public blocklists: listed on 5 independent blocklists
Victim re-reports (public form): 1

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      188.114.97.3 (US, San Francisco)
ASN:             ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET, US

## TLS CERTIFICATE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     none
Status:     INVALID chain

## 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.

Last verified:     2026-04-24 11:13:44 UTC

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-19 02:09:30 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies usdai.network as a high-risk generic phishing domain impersonating a cryptocurrency-related platform, likely targeting users interested in USD AI digital assets. The domain's page title "Buy | USD AI" suggests an attempt to lure victims into fraudulent transactions or credential theft by mimicking legitimate crypto services.

Technical analysis reveals that usdai.network was registered through Cloudflare, Inc. and resolved to the IP address 188.114.97.3. The domain has been flagged by 10 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal and appears on five separate security blocklists, indicating widespread recognition of its malicious intent. These indicators strongly support the domain's classification as a phishing threat designed to deceive users.

Currently, usdai.network is offline, which limits immediate risk but does not guarantee the threat is fully mitigated. Users are advised to remain vigilant and avoid interacting with this domain or similar suspicious sites. Security teams should continue monitoring for related domains or infrastructure to prevent potential phishing campaigns leveraging the USD AI brand or cryptocurrency themes.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon SHA-256:       f1591a5221136c49438642155691ae6c68e25b7241f3d7ebe975b09a77662016

## 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.
