## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-19 01:12:12 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies cowswap.org as a high-risk domain engaged in crypto drainer activity. This domain poses a significant threat to cryptocurrency users by attempting to siphon digital assets through malicious means.

Supporting evidence includes its presence on four security blocklists and detection by 15 out of 95 VirusTotal vendors. The domain, created on December 15, 2025, resolves to IP 172.67.212.70 and is registered via GoDaddy.com, LLC. It is associated with the Angel Drainer kit, a known tool for extracting crypto wallets. The site’s low Scamadviser trust score of 1/100 further confirms its untrustworthy nature.

Currently, cowswap.org has been taken offline, reducing immediate risk. Users should remain vigilant by avoiding this domain and similar URLs. Employing updated security solutions and verifying domains before interaction can mitigate exposure to such crypto-draining threats.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-1767773503-cowswap.org
TLS cert SHA-256:      628d00a4f7e3fe72d9129df07ab5de1e918302f10632a8572572f575d83e9d6c

## 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.
