## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-05-15 04:01:14 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies btc-hestern106.live as an active crypto drainer phishing domain impersonating Bitcoin investment tools to steal cryptocurrency assets.

This domain was flagged with a risk status of under_investigation and poses a live threat. Threat intelligence shows 0/95 detections on VirusTotal, a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, domain creation on May 11, 2026, registration through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, and resolution to IP 172.67.214.94. The domain remains unlisted on mainstream blocklists but leverages a recently issued certificate to appear legitimate.

Users should immediately avoid interacting with btc-hestern106.live, verify sender authenticity for any unsolicited Bitcoin investment offers, use hardware wallets or cold storage for crypto assets, enable transaction alerts, and report the domain to security platforms and registrars for takedown. Never enter seed phrases, private keys, or deposit funds on unknown platforms.

[Updates since narrative was generated:]
  - VirusTotal detections: now 1/95 (narrative was written when count was lower)

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260515-3F4448
Favicon MD5:       51ef3b344a3491ba956860bebe8eaef0

## 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.
