## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-07-14 12:20:30 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain, cloud-uphold-login-auth.tem3.io, was registered on August 2 2024 through GoDaddy.com, LLC and is currently delegated to the Cloudflare nameservers justin.ns.cloudflare.com and val.ns.cloudflare.com. DNS resolution points to the IPv4 address 188.114.97.3, which remains active as of the report date (July 14 2026). Intelligence classification tags the site as a credential_phishing infrastructure, indicating that it is likely used to harvest login credentials. No public content has been captured, and no victim reports or malware payloads have been observed, so the exact phishing workflow and targeted brands remain unknown. The continued activity of the domain suggests an operational threat. Defensive teams should add the domain to block lists at network and email gateways, monitor DNS queries for the associated IP address, and consider sinkholing or sinkhole monitoring if feasible. Ongoing DNS and passive DNS surveillance is recommended to detect any future changes to the hosting provider, IP address, or additional sub‑domains that may be leveraged for credential harvesting.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      59a222852ce3809be7a95f266c727e1e3bb9c98fb9e7593c1ee92b4da9ea2f2a

## 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.
