## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-04-24 16:51:03 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

acrossprotocol.pro has been identified as an active brand impersonation domain targeting Across Protocol users. The domain is currently under investigation with a status of 'active' and poses a direct threat to users who may unwittingly enter sensitive information or connect cryptocurrency wallets to the fraudulent site.

This domain was flagged by 0 of 95 VirusTotal vendors, registered through HOSTINGER operations, UAB, and resolves to IP 104.21.81.214. The domain was created on August 11, 2025, and currently holds no blocklist entries or trust score penalties from major security vendors.

Users are strongly advised to avoid interacting with acrossprotocol.pro, verify domain legitimacy through official Across Protocol channels, and report any suspicious activity. Blocking the IP 104.21.81.214 at the network level is recommended to prevent accidental exposure to this impersonation scam.

[Updates since narrative was generated:]
  - VirusTotal detections: now 1/94 (narrative was written when count was lower)

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260424-17BFC0

## 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.
