## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-05-07 09:28:31 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies aavee.run as an active brand impersonation scam targeting Aave users. The domain mimics the legitimate Aave platform to steal credentials and crypto assets through a convincing spoofed interface.

This domain was flagged during routine monitoring with zero detections on VirusTotal out of 95 engines, indicating it remains undetected by most security tools. The site operates on IP 188.114.97.3, registered through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com on January 18, 2026, and secured with a Google Trust Services SSL certificate. Despite its recent creation, it has not yet been added to major blocklists, posing a heightened risk to unsuspecting visitors.

Organizations should block aavee.run at the network perimeter and DNS level to prevent access. Users must verify URLs carefully, avoid clicking suspicious links, and report impersonation attempts to Aave’s official channels. Security teams should monitor for similar domains and update threat intelligence feeds to include this indicator.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      d3aadaa7aac1f854a9021ee4f5afffd864cc6e5e451916389614dd344c7f23e6

## 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.
