## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-04 16:25:25 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies app-moonshot.exchange as an active domain associated with generic phishing threats, carrying a medium risk level. Users should exercise caution when interacting with this site due to its potential to deceive and compromise sensitive information.

Supporting evidence includes its resolution to IP address 178.212.12.231 and detection by 3 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating some recognition of malicious intent. The domain remains active, suggesting ongoing phishing campaigns or attempts to lure unsuspecting users.

To mitigate risk, users are advised to avoid entering personal or financial details on this domain. Security solutions should block or monitor traffic to app-moonshot.exchange. PhishDestroy continues to track its status to provide timely updates on any changes in threat level or activity.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260304-FCAF06
TLS cert SHA-256:      3ced94aac16f9bc278fd1085cf75050582871cc9a4f1dc82df4bffb335a50ef4

## 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.
