Registrar: Global Domain Group LLC Nameservers: adam.ns.cloudflare.com, danica.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-07-19 Expires: 2027-07-19 Page title: Variational Rewards ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-10-17 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 7f3efc7c140aa99b1a35f2074d98135df876449da14b1b6bfee769f2ee5d868e ## 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: 2026-07-19 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-21 10:03:22 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-07-21 08:07:35 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-23 16:20:24 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-22 00:25:54 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f83b1-e799-77b3-a9d8-eee633137050/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/d6fc9dd5-775a-4133-8748-08735a704618 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/variational-app.xyz crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.variational-app.xyz Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=variational-app.xyz AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/variational-app.xyz URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/variational-app.xyz/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-21 10:03:37 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] variational-app.xyz phishing site impersonates login portal Analysis of variational-app.xyz indicates a recently registered domain exhibiting characteristics consistent with phishing infrastructure. The domain was created on July 19, 2026, through registrar Global Domain Group LLC, with nameservers adam.ns.cloudflare.com and danica.ns.cloudflare.com, suggesting Cloudflare hosting. It currently resolves to IP address 172.67.158.103, though no autonomous system or geolocation data is confirmed in available intelligence. As of July 21, 2026, the domain appears on one security blocklist and is actively blocked by PhishDestroy, though it has not been flagged by any of the 95 vendors in the most recent VirusTotal scan. The absence of detections does not confirm safety, particularly given the domain's recent registration and limited visibility in security telemetry. The exact content or targeted brand remains unconfirmed; no page title, phishing kit, or brand impersonation details are available in current evidence. Defenders are advised to treat this domain as suspicious based on registration age, hosting pattern, and presence on a single blocklist. Network-level blocking or monitoring is recommended pending further analysis of the site's content and payload delivery behavior. No additional context regarding scam type, user interaction, or credential harvesting functionality is available at this time. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260721-C942A7 Favicon MD5: a3c4dd1f37933b35438fed046787738d TLS cert SHA-256: 7f3efc7c140aa99b1a35f2074d98135df876449da14b1b6bfee769f2ee5d868e ## 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 (operator 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/variational-app.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=variational-app.xyz Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
