## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Status: CLOSED — no report required.
This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either
the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the
operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file
for audit but no formal notice was sent.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-04-22 15:26:10 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies asterportal.click as an active FastPanel phishing scam designed to deceive users into installing malicious software or surrendering credentials under the guise of a legitimate hosting control panel.

This domain poses a credible threat by masquerading as FASTPANEL, a popular web hosting administration tool, while operating with minimal detection despite its malicious intent. Evidence includes zero detections on VirusTotal (0/95), registration through DYNADOT LLC on April 20, 2026, and active blocking by MetaMask and SEAL security systems. The domain resolves to IP 188.114.97.3 and has been flagged on two separate security blocklists, yet remains operational with a valid Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, further enhancing its credibility to unsuspecting victims.

Users who have visited asterportal.click should immediately scan their devices for malware using reputable antivirus software such as Malwarebytes or Windows Defender. If any suspicious activity or unauthorized access is detected, change all passwords associated with hosting accounts, financial services, or email services. Report the domain to your browser's security team, security platforms like PhishDestroy, and consider blocking the domain at your network level to prevent further exposure. Exercise heightened caution with unsolicited links claiming to offer hosting tools, even if they appear legitimate at first glance.

[Updates since narrative was generated:]
  - VirusTotal detections: now 3/94 (narrative was written when count was lower)

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260422-770BD0
TLS cert SHA-256:      58959710fba4d55c791be72520d3ef6ecac49c6a61e4807c10726d29e345c775

## 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.
