## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-19 02:32:41 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies facepunch-new.org as a generic phishing domain used to deceive users into submitting sensitive information under the guise of a legitimate sign-in page. Classified as a medium-risk threat, this domain was likely designed to harvest credentials by impersonating trusted entities. The page title "Sign in" corroborates its intent to lure unsuspecting victims into entering login details.

Technical indicators reveal that facepunch-new.org resolved to IP address 104.21.95.89, and it appeared on at least one security blocklist, signaling community and vendor recognition of its malicious purpose. VirusTotal scans flagged the domain by 6 out of 95 security vendors, confirming its suspicious nature but indicating partial detection coverage. The domain was registered on February 21, 2026, suggesting a recent setup aimed at quick exploitation.

Currently, facepunch-new.org has been taken offline, effectively mitigating the threat it posed. Users and security professionals are advised to avoid this domain and remain vigilant for any related phishing attempts. PhishDestroy recommends monitoring blocklists and threat intelligence feeds to prevent exposure to similar emerging phishing sites.

## 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.
