## 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.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-07-08 13:37:00 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This assessment identifies wyagyu.xyz as a high-risk domain associated with generic phishing. The domain is currently active and demonstrates indicators consistent with phishing infrastructure, elevating the threat level for users and organizations interacting with this resource.

Analysis of technical data shows that wyagyu.xyz was registered through Spaceship, Inc. on January 13, 2026. As of the most recent evaluation, the domain remains active and is resolving to IP address 185.165.169.123. VirusTotal data indicates that 4 out of 95 security vendors have flagged this domain as malicious, pointing to a consensus among multiple threat detection engines. These detection rates, coupled with the recent registration date and the use of a specific hosting provider, reinforce the likelihood of ongoing malicious activity. There is no evidence at present of listing on major blocklists or trust scoring services beyond the VirusTotal detections.

Recommended mitigation steps include immediate blocking of wyagyu.xyz at the network gateway and endpoint security solutions. Security teams should monitor network logs for any attempts to resolve or communicate with 185.165.169.123. Users should be educated about the risks of interacting with suspicious domains, particularly those flagged for phishing. Any observed activity related to this domain should trigger incident response procedures to contain and investigate potential compromise.

## 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.
