## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 45/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      0/94 security vendors flagged this domain

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      172.67.199.197 (CA, Toronto)
ASN:             AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.
Hosting org:     Cloudflare, Inc.

!!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!!
NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with
illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response. Primary sources:

Nameservers:     ["rosa.ns.cloudflare.com", "will.ns.cloudflare.com"]
Registered:      2026-04-16

## TLS CERTIFICATE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     Google Trust Services / WE1
Expires:    2026-07-05
Status:     INVALID chain
Fingerprint: 2dd1444e5c965ca1fe7c395fc501bc90b617346976b5fae0dd5c092e684a9076

## 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
----------------------------------------------------------------
Domain registered: 2026-04-16 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-04-16 18:51:03 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Last verified:     2026-04-24 19:40:12 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-04-23 00:16:33 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-04-16 18:51:29 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies z-e-r-o-l-e-n-d.net as an active generic phishing domain registered on 20 June 2025 that poses a high immediate risk to credential confidentiality. The threat actor’s goal is the systematic exfiltration of user login credentials via spoofed landing pages that mimic legitimate services.  Based on verified threat intelligence, z-e-r-o-l-e-n-d.net currently shows 0 detections out of 95 engines on VirusTotal, indicating zero antivirus coverage as of seed 49171a. The domain resolves to IP address 172.67.199.197 using an SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services, which falsely elevates perceived trust. Domain registration was performed through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, and the site became accessible on 20 June 2025. Despite the absence of blocklist entries, the combination of fresh registration, active infrastructure, and counterfeit SSL trustworthiness creates a credible lure mechanism primed for credential harvesting.  To mitigate exposure, users should immediately block or flag z-e-r-o-l-e-n-d.net at network and endpoint levels; verify HTTPS certificate issuer and domain age before entering credentials; and report the domain to threat intelligence platforms to increase detection coverage. Organizations should deploy DNS sinkholes and web-proxy rules referencing the IP 172.67.199.197 to prevent outbound callbacks. Continuous monitoring for credential leaks on this domain is advised until detection rates improve.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       38cbd8a522505ef52cda217700e0d910
TLS cert SHA-256:      2dd1444e5c965ca1fe7c395fc501bc90b617346976b5fae0dd5c092e684a9076

## 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.
