## 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.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-02-26 23:23:19 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Last verified:     2026-04-21 08:11:38 UTC

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-19 01:20:52 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies coin-basepro-web.pages.dev as a high-risk phishing domain impersonating the well-known cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase. Classified under brand impersonation threats, this domain was specifically designed to deceive users by mimicking Coinbase’s branding and services. It was created recently on February 21, 2026, signaling a likely malicious intent to exploit unsuspecting visitors.

Technical analysis reveals several key indicators of phishing activity. The domain is registered through Cloudflare, Inc., leveraging their infrastructure which is often abused for fraudulent purposes. It resolves to the IP address 188.114.97.3, and several security mechanisms flagged it: 14 out of 95 VirusTotal engines detected malicious behavior, and Google Safe Browsing categorized it under social engineering risks. Moreover, it appears on three distinct security blocklists. The page title captured during analysis read "Suspected phishing site | Cloudflare," reinforcing its illicit nature.

Currently, coin-basepro-web.pages.dev is offline, indicating that mitigation efforts have successfully disrupted its operation. The domain’s takedown reduces the immediate threat to users, but its prior existence highlights the need for vigilance against brand impersonation attacks targeting cryptocurrency platforms. PhishDestroy recommends continuous monitoring of similar domains to prevent future incidents exploiting trusted brand names.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      e215dfcaac19b732603a33888346630521cdcaf4eb212af8cb0196d3c937f978

## 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.
