## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      185.165.169.123 (RO, Bucharest)
ASN:             AS200651 FlokiNET ehf

## 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.

## TIMELINE

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-07-08 15:01:46 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain, waghiu.xyz, is flagged as a generic phishing threat specializing in credential harvesting. Infrastructure analysis reveals no direct association with known brand impersonation or drainer kits at this stage, though the domain exhibits characteristics consistent with low-sophistication phishing campaigns targeting login credentials. The lack of brand-specific indicators suggests a broad, opportunistic approach rather than a targeted impersonation of a particular service.  Technical indicators confirm the domain was registered on January 17, 2026, through Spaceship, Inc., and currently resolves to the IP address 185.165.169.123. VirusTotal reports 0/95 detections, indicating no antivirus engines have flagged the domain as malicious at the time of analysis. Google Safe Browsing status remains unconfirmed, and no blocklist entries have been recorded. The domain’s creation date is recent, aligning with typical phishing lifecycle patterns where domains are rapidly deployed and discarded.  The domain remains active and under investigation, with no takedown or sinkholing actions observed. Response actions are pending further analysis of hosting infrastructure and potential victim reports. The remaining risk is elevated due to the domain’s operational status, lack of detection by security vendors, and unresolved hosting environment. Users are advised to block the domain at the network level and monitor for credential reuse attempts. Organizations should treat any interaction with this domain as a potential security incident and conduct forensic analysis on affected endpoints.

[Updates since narrative was generated:]
  - Public blocklists: now listed on 3 feeds
  - VirusTotal detections: now 5/91 (narrative was written when count was lower)

## EVIDENCE HASHES

Favicon MD5:       42c2cd7c326db3c5fc502631edbe93df

## 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.
