## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-07-15 06:00:22 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

fortace.info: Confirmed Phishing Site

Analysis of the domain fortace.info indicates that it is actively being used for a generic phishing campaign. The domain was registered on 4 July 2026 through GNAME.COM PTE. LTD. and is protected by a Let's Encrypt certificate identified as YE2. DNS resolution points to the IPv4 address 158.94.211.169, and the authoritative name servers are a.dnspod.com, b.dnspod.com, and c.dnspod.com. VirusTotal reports that three of ninety‑one scanning engines have flagged the domain, confirming the presence of malicious activity, although the specific payload or credential‑harvesting technique has not been publicly disclosed. The short age of the domain, combined with the use of free TLS and popular DNS hosting, is consistent with rapid‑deployment phishing infrastructure. No additional intelligence such as page content, targeted brand, or malware kit has been released, so the exact lure employed remains uncertain. Defenders should treat fortace.info as high‑risk: block network traffic to the resolved IP, add the domain to URL filtering and email security deny lists, and monitor DNS queries for the associated dnspod name servers. Continuous re‑scanning on platforms like VirusTotal is recommended to capture any evolution of the threat. Incident response teams encountering credentials or payloads linked to this domain should assume compromise and initiate standard containment and forensic procedures.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260715-C7DCD0
Favicon MD5:       21f74e7568ed0633bf3456e0148a75d3
TLS cert SHA-256:      9074be5aeef28b214d46bcb5de2530ecbf6cb8094e872c1cf08ed99b3f144566

## 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.
