## 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
----------------------------------------------------------------
First detected:    2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2025-11-13 13:00:08 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-04-11 06:23:02 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-02-21 06:06:54 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-03 02:50:58 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies watchdoors.network as a medium-risk phishing domain designed to deceive users and steal sensitive information. Although currently offline, this domain was flagged on multiple security blocklists and registered through Cloudflare, indicating attempts to mask its true intent. Visiting such sites can expose users to identity theft, financial loss, or unauthorized access to accounts.

This phishing scheme typically involves mimicking legitimate websites or displaying misleading messages, such as the page title "Nur einen Moment…" (Just a moment…), to delay suspicion. Attackers aim to trick users into entering credentials or personal data by creating a sense of urgency or legitimacy. The domain resolved to an IP with a history of malicious activity and was detected by several security vendors, highlighting its threat potential.

Users should avoid interacting with watchdoors.network or similar suspicious domains. It is crucial to verify URLs carefully, refrain from clicking unknown links, and use updated security software. If personal information was entered, users should change passwords immediately and monitor accounts for unusual activity. Reporting such domains to security platforms helps protect others from falling victim to phishing attacks.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon SHA-256:       e9639e3c4681ce85f852fbac48e2eeee5ba51296dbfec57c200d59b76237ab80
TLS cert SHA-256:      76e4067919a41671ebc5b0c03ca6c6f76556334d47428a72ce3dbefb53f1226d

## 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.
