betneptune.com used in credential‑stealing phishing campaign

Analysis indicates that betneptune.com is currently active and returns an HTTP 301 redirect. The domain is listed on two public security blocklists and is actively blocked by the PhishDestroy and CryptoFirewall filter sets. VirusTotal reports that the site has been scanned by 95 AV engines without generating any detections; this absence of flags does not constitute evidence of benign intent. The limited telemetry suggests the site is being used for a generic phishing operation, but no payload details, credential‑harvesting pages, or hosting infrastructure have been disclosed. Uncertainty remains regarding the specific phishing lure, targeted brand, or geographic origin of the infrastructure. Defenders should continue to block betneptune.com at perimeter and DNS filtering layers, monitor outbound connections for attempts to resolve the domain, and incorporate the domain into SOC alerting rules. Additional investigation, such as sandbox retrieval of the redirected URL and passive DNS enrichment, is recommended to clarify the threat actor’s tactics and potential data exfiltration pathways.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       4e548d06a6f3be1355bc5963706ef6e3
TLS cert SHA-256:      0211fcc6b177876e597ba404906ca3a57dc1501a7648a0c9093094ca466b18ec

## 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 (operator 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.
