## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-07-19 19:59:14 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

18401.xyz: Confirmed Phishing Host

Analysis conducted on 18401.xyz as of July 19, 2026 indicates that the domain is actively serving web content (HTTP 200) and resolves to the IPv4 address 103.27.177.163. The site is listed on at least one public security blocklist and has been explicitly blocked by the PhishDestroy feed, confirming its classification as a malicious phishing resource. VirusTotal reports that 17 of 91 AV engines flag the domain, demonstrating a moderate consensus of threat. No additional intelligence such as page title, targeted brand, or phishing kit has been disclosed, leaving the exact lure and credential‑capture methodology uncertain. Infrastructure analysis shows a single point of resolution to the cited IP, which is currently reachable, suggesting the attacker maintains an operational web server. Defenders should immediately add 18401.xyz and its resolved IP address to network deny lists, enforce DNS‑based blocking, and monitor for any related traffic. Ongoing scanning with multi‑engine services is advised to capture any future changes in detection status or payload delivery.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      30f3f2ea22c686ceda5b480f113482f057e3470ebdf28e3b2d1729b89385fb68

## 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.
