## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-07-02 14:56:49 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain cpuz.cc poses a significant threat as it has been identified as a generic phishing site. Phishing threats attempt to deceive users into providing sensitive information by masquerading as legitimate entities. This domain's page title suggests it offers CPU diagnostics, potentially misleading users into believing it is a trusted resource. The high-risk nature of this site indicates users may be exposed to data theft or credential compromise if they interact with it.

Analysis of the domain reveals that it was created on March 25, 2026, and is registered through Spaceship, Inc. It is currently active and resolves to the IP address 104.21.14.224. Furthermore, it is blocked by Maltrail and appears on one security blocklist, indicating recognized malicious activity within cybersecurity circles. The domain has been flagged by 10 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, further underscoring its status as a potential threat.

If a user has visited cpuz.cc, it is crucial to take immediate action to mitigate any risks. Users should change any passwords used on this domain and monitor their accounts for unusual activity. It is advisable to run a full security scan using reputable antivirus software to check for any malware or malicious software that may have been inadvertently downloaded. Additionally, staying informed about phishing tactics and enhancing personal cybersecurity practices can help prevent future incidents.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260702-4CE320
Favicon MD5:       eaf7f1a9361761530c46df9c9d1aab40
TLS cert SHA-256:      cb4d90263cc55ff17685e31d1b9186e1be81bcea9c04292b33c18fec3547cfcf

## 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.
