## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-04-06 15:43:03 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy flags app-arbitrum.github.io as a crypto drainer impersonating Arbitrum, a leading Layer 2 scaling solution for Ethereum. This fraudulent site mimics Arbitrum’s branding to trick users into connecting crypto wallets and signing malicious transactions that drain funds. The page leverages GitHub’s legitimate infrastructure (registered via GitHub, Inc.) to appear trustworthy, while hosting a spoofed interface designed to harvest private keys or authorize unauthorized transfers. Security blocklists already include this domain, and MetaMask has taken preemptive action by blocking access, yet the threat remains active and under investigation.

This domain was flagged based on 0 detections out of 95 VirusTotal scans as of the latest intelligence. It was registered through GitHub’s platform and resolved to IP address 185.199.108.153, secured with a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate to further deceive visitors. The site’s GitHub origin does not validate its legitimacy—malicious actors routinely abuse free hosting services to deploy impersonation campaigns. The presence on security blocklists underscores its confirmed malicious nature, even before traditional antivirus engines catch up.

If you visited app-arbitrum.github.io, disconnect your wallet immediately and revoke any unauthorized permissions through your wallet’s settings or tools like revoke.cash. Do not interact further with the site or any linked transactions. Report the domain to your wallet provider and consider transferring remaining funds to a new wallet. Always verify URLs manually and use official Arbitrum channels for legitimate transactions.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       6149304e8d9b94519be4c02981d3e279

## 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.
