## 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: 2026-03-03 03:20:11 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies wasabiwallets.io as a high-risk crypto drainer domain designed to steal cryptocurrency assets from unsuspecting users. The domain masqueraded as the legitimate Wasabi Wallet, a privacy-focused Bitcoin wallet, to deceive victims into compromising their funds. Given its malicious intent and aggressive targeting, the risk level associated with this domain is classified as high.

The domain was created recently on December 14, 2025, and was registered through HOSTINGER operations, UAB. It was associated with an Angel Drainer kit, a known crypto theft toolkit, and appeared on seven separate security blocklists. VirusTotal analysis flagged it by 19 security vendors, underscoring its malicious nature. Although the domain resolved to IP address 82.25.87.46, it has since been taken offline, indicating possible takedown or abandonment.

Users are advised to exercise extreme caution when interacting with crypto wallet websites, especially those mimicking reputable services. Always verify URLs carefully and rely on official sources for wallet software. Employing robust security measures such as hardware wallets, two-factor authentication, and phishing detection tools can significantly reduce the risk of crypto asset loss. Monitoring domain reputation and promptly reporting suspicious sites will help maintain a safer crypto ecosystem.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon SHA-256:       4e4f4e72bfb7cfc9b3b751b13989e919a40aae23bba3e196a194517076127c72

## 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.
