## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-04-15 13:31:24 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies finsavecreditunion.com as an elevated-risk crypto drainer impersonating the Aave brand, active as of September 2025. This domain resolves to IP 163.61.188.5 and was registered through TuringSign Inc. d/b/a Cosmotown on September 14, 2025. Security vendor analysis via VirusTotal shows 6 out of 95 flags, indicating partial detection but not full mitigation of the threat.  This domain exhibits multiple red flags consistent with active crypto drainer campaigns. The Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate suggests an attempt to appear legitimate, while the recent creation date (September 14, 2025) and hosting on IP 163.61.188.5—without established trust—raise immediate concern. The partial detection by security vendors (6/95) highlights the sophistication of the threat actor in evading automated scanning tools, emphasizing the need for human-in-the-loop verification.  To mitigate exposure, users should immediately avoid interacting with finsavecreditunion.com and its associated pages. Given the impersonation of Aave—a major decentralized finance protocol—individuals seeking Aave services must verify official URLs through trusted channels like the project’s verified social media or aave.com. PhishDestroy recommends reporting this domain to blocklists and conducting endpoint scans to detect any latent compromise from prior visits.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260415-D5B934
Favicon MD5:       ae8991fc555e655feac7eb4afffad053
TLS cert SHA-256:      6446ff4b8dbd28e68e43c7dab9fa3936aef7d2aa9929675cbfbe3a6f6767fd2d

## 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.
