## 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: 2026-06-22 23:28:09 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

checker-poly.org is a phishing domain that targets MetaMask users. The site is currently offline, but it was flagged by 3 out of 91 vendors on VirusTotal. PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL have all included it in their blocklists. The domain was registered with PDR Ltd. and hosted on an IP managed by Cloudflare, Inc. in the United States.

The domain was created on June 13, 2026, and detected by PhishDestroy just one day later. Despite its quick takedown, the domain managed to receive a platform risk score of 73 out of 100. This indicates a significant threat level, particularly given its specific targeting of MetaMask users, a popular cryptocurrency wallet service.

The SSL certificate for checker-poly.org was issued by Google Trust Services, which may have lent it an air of legitimacy to unsuspecting users. The page title "Just a moment..." suggests the use of a delay tactic to engage visitors, potentially to harvest sensitive information. The rapid detection and takedown of this domain highlight the importance of swift action in combating phishing threats.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260617-605E03
Favicon MD5:       11e019b208d7670a3daa87d8e48fcce4
TLS cert SHA-256:      2934e4d4d1ced4e2266b8e00637c057a110e2a9ed9aec1d5d6b5e36f4deaa78e

## 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.
