## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-19 05:52:35 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies bera-io.digital as a low-risk generic phishing domain. The site was used to impersonate legitimate services by leveraging deceptive content, including a fake Google ReCaptcha page, aiming to trick users into disclosing sensitive information. This classification stems from observed phishing behavior consistent with credential harvesting campaigns.

Technical analysis shows that bera-io.digital resolved to IP address 172.67.162.242 and was registered through Global Domain Group LLC on December 16, 2025. The domain appeared on one security blocklist and was flagged by 2 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, indicating minimal but noteworthy suspicion. The infrastructure relied on typical domain registration and hosting mechanisms common in low-effort phishing operations.

Currently, the domain is offline and no longer resolving, reflecting a swift takedown response or self-removal by the threat actors. Users are advised to remain cautious and avoid any interaction with bera-io.digital or similar suspicious domains. Continuous monitoring and prompt reporting remain essential to mitigate risks associated with such phishing campaigns.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      055e3bf0a68b679ebba7f605e7c3b569d647f25667b93dbaade8e71c823e84f3

## 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.
