## 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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-22 22:58:26 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

vexemasec.online is an emerging phishing threat, currently active and exploiting the early detection gap in antivirus databases. Despite having zero detections on VirusTotal, this domain is already listed on one public blocklist, specifically PhishDestroy's. This indicates its potential risk as it operates within the critical 24-72 hour window post-registration, before antivirus signatures propagate.

Registered with Spaceship, Inc., vexemasec.online is hosted on an IP located in the US, under the organization NEW DHAKA HARDWARE. The domain's SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, a common choice for phishing domains due to its free and automated nature. The domain was created on February 21, 2026, and PhishDestroy identified it as a threat on June 22, 2026, highlighting our proactive detection capabilities.

The domain's abuse score of 39 out of 100 suggests moderate malicious activity, warranting attention. This score, combined with its early detection status, underscores the importance of monitoring such domains closely. Phishing domains like vexemasec.online often target unsuspecting users by mimicking legitimate services, aiming to harvest sensitive information. As such, early identification and blocklisting are crucial in mitigating potential damage.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260622-41CBE0
Favicon MD5:       38f26c9737f5ba890da1c1ca4c2c1495
TLS cert SHA-256:      1d29a035fa2b96daff76c6fda1e8adb81671485a5bb2fc0b3c6934a6254cf426

## 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.
