## 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: 2026-06-23 00:00:21 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain vancityworldcup.com has been identified as a generic phishing threat, currently active and posing a high risk to users. This domain does not impersonate a specific brand or utilize a known drainer kit, but its registration and behavior align with phishing campaigns designed to deceive visitors into disclosing sensitive information.

Technical analysis reveals that vancityworldcup.com has a VirusTotal detection rate of 1 out of 95 security vendors, indicating low but existing flagging. The domain was registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC on March 10, 2024, and resolves to the IP address 15.197.225.128. Its Google Safe Browsing status is not explicitly stated, but the domain remains active and has not been blocklisted by any major services according to the available data.

Currently, vancityworldcup.com is still operational, and no response actions have been observed. The remaining risk is significant given its active status and potential for phishing attacks. Users are strongly advised to avoid interacting with this domain and to verify any suspicious links on PhishDestroy before proceeding.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260622-77E32B
Favicon MD5:       0e1722dd05810bb995f4ea0109e02a8b
TLS cert SHA-256:      4d2f906521a006e9879254157f99a5b87c4b107e5c6ff42910fc190bc80b3413

## 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.
