## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
HIGH THREAT — malicious activity confirmed
Composite threat score: 64/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      1/94 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: ChainPatrol
URLQuery:        2 detections

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      104.21.66.4 (CA, Toronto)
ASN:             AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.
Hosting org:     Cloudflare, Inc.
Registrar:       NameSilo, LLC

!!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!!
NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about
received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com)
for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our
X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence.
Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket —
NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Status: pending notification queue. No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is
waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter.

## TIMELINE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Domain registered: 2026-04-13 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-04-13 18:32:43 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-13 15:33:10 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name
Last verified:     2026-04-21 19:40:05 UTC
Current status:    ACTIVE / observable

Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means
the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered
by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution
research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-04-13 18:33:22 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies cdeposit.help as an active credential harvesting domain designed to deceive users into surrendering login credentials or financial information. This site employs social engineering tactics, likely presenting itself as a trusted financial or deposit service to trick victims into unwittingly exposing sensitive data. The threat is elevated due to its recent creation and the presence of deceptive infrastructure, which increases the risk of successful exploitation against unsuspecting users.  This domain was flagged by VirusTotal with 1 out of 95 security vendors detecting malicious activity, indicating a low but concerning detection rate. It was registered through NameSilo, LLC on March 28, 2026, and resolves to IP address 104.21.66.4, which is associated with hosting environments known to harbor fraudulent activity. The site also utilizes a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which attackers commonly exploit to lend false legitimacy to their operations. Despite the low antivirus detection rate, the combination of recent registration, use of a reputable registrar, and hosting on a high-risk IP address suggests this domain is actively engaged in malicious behavior.  Users who have visited cdeposit.help should immediately cease any interactions with the site and avoid entering personal, login, or financial information. If credentials or sensitive data were provided, change passwords immediately and monitor financial accounts for unauthorized activity. Consider using a password manager to detect credential reuse and enable two-factor authentication wherever possible. Report the domain to your browser's security team or platforms like Google Safe Browsing to help protect others from falling victim to this scam.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260413-49E865
Favicon MD5:       6b0c3a937095705c09335887d2269e9d
TLS cert SHA-256:      2d78fab90f66794a6073cff9ead9364f695e76db711a148b830f392efe7bfec1

## 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.
