## 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: 2026-05-15 21:41:51 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies vpspay.cloud as a domain currently under investigation for suspected crypto drainer phishing activity, with an active status and no confirmed brand impersonation noted at this time.

This domain was flagged by 0 of 95 VirusTotal vendors as of the latest scan, indicating no current detections despite its suspicious nature. It resolves to IP address 172.67.188.63, is registered through OVH SAS, and holds an SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services. The domain was created on November 25, 2025, and has not yet appeared on major blocklists or trust score platforms, maintaining a neutral reputation.

Given its recent creation, lack of detections, and unresolved investigation status, users are advised to exercise extreme caution when interacting with vpspay.cloud. Avoid entering any personal or financial information, cryptocurrency transactions, or credentials on this domain. If encountered, report the domain to relevant cybersecurity authorities and blocklist maintainers to prevent potential victimization. Monitor updates as this investigation progresses, as additional threat intelligence may emerge.

[Updates since narrative was generated:]
  - VirusTotal detections: now 1/92 (narrative was written when count was lower)

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260515-4D4A5F
Favicon MD5:       f7cc8b19a6b6baf22f8618415670c7c2
TLS cert SHA-256:      c7ea82211db25ab718e0c2e32c8a01d0a9ecb6530b305494cd053821995abb75

## 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.
