## 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: 2026-04-20 14:35:02 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

xavex.bet is an active threat site engaging in brand impersonation targeting users of the Aave cryptocurrency platform. This domain specifically attempts to harvest login credentials through fake login pages, posing a significant risk of crypto asset theft and unauthorized account access. Users encountering this domain should be aware that it is designed to deceive by mimicking a trusted DeFi brand.

PhishDestroy’s investigation reveals that xavex.bet was registered on February 23, 2026, using PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com as the registrar. It resolves to the IP address 188.114.97.3 and uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate to appear legitimate. VirusTotal results show that 1 out of 95 security vendors currently flag this domain, indicating a low but notable detection rate. Despite limited vendor flags, the domain’s elevated risk level and active status warrant caution.

Users who have visited xavex.bet should immediately verify if they have entered any sensitive information such as wallet credentials or private keys on the site. It is recommended to change passwords, enable multi-factor authentication where possible, and monitor accounts for unauthorized activity. Always cross-check suspicious domains with threat intelligence databases like PhishDestroy to avoid falling victim to crypto credential theft scams.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260420-D55D0A
Favicon MD5:       4b46bd5337f62871a14c564391ac3bf8
TLS cert SHA-256:      c398ace79800f6e8f8b6ddf30743a7cfb12b0221a86402e60276b27ce010e0d9

## 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.
