## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Credential Phishing

## DETECTION EVIDENCE

VirusTotal:      5/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: Bfore.Ai PreCrime, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky, SOCRadar
Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists

## 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 15:01:37 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain is flagged as a credential harvesting threat under active investigation. Analysis indicates waygyu.xyz operates as a generic phishing infrastructure, likely designed to capture user login credentials through fraudulent login portals or deceptive forms. The risk level remains provisional pending further behavioral analysis and victim telemetry.  Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on January 13, 2026, through Spaceship, Inc., and currently resolves to the IP address 185.165.169.123. VirusTotal detection engines report 0 out of 95 flags, suggesting the domain has not yet been widely recognized as malicious. No entries appear on major blocklists or reputation feeds at this time, and trust scores remain neutral across threat intelligence platforms.  Mitigation requires immediate network-level blocking of the domain and its resolving IP. Security teams should monitor for connections to 185.165.169.123 and waygyu.xyz in proxy logs, endpoint telemetry, and DNS query records. User awareness training should emphasize verification of login portals, particularly those mimicking financial or corporate authentication pages. If credentials are suspected to have been exposed, password resets and multi-factor authentication enforcement are recommended for affected accounts.

## 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.
