## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-03 02:19:21 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy has identified coinexin1.com as a phishing domain targeting users by impersonating the legitimate cryptocurrency platform CoinEx. The site aimed to deceive visitors into divulging sensitive information such as login credentials and financial data. Classified with a medium risk level, the domain was part of a generic phishing campaign designed to exploit unsuspecting users' trust.

The domain coinexin1.com was registered on April 16, 2025, through InterNetX GmbH and resolved to the IP address 198.18.29.204. While the domain was active, it appeared on one security blocklist and was flagged by 3 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal. This infrastructure suggests a relatively new but suspicious setup focused on fraudulent activity. As of now, the domain has been taken offline, reducing the immediate threat it poses.

Users are advised to remain vigilant when encountering links or emails referencing CoinEx or similar cryptocurrency services. Avoid clicking on suspicious URLs and verify the authenticity of websites before entering personal credentials. Employing updated security software and monitoring account activity can help mitigate the risk of phishing attacks. PhishDestroy recommends reporting any encounters with coinexin1.com to help enhance collective defense against phishing threats.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       c0b6d275a6437f3ee172f2b1e5cfddf1
TLS cert SHA-256:      dac74fa220a38ba1b1879681c23a5a9cd47b778fd8b75e4497ff2e8fe4bd7c50

## 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.
