## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
CRITICAL THREAT — DO NOT VISIT
Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Impersonation
Targeted brand: Gemini

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      2/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: LevelBlue, SOCRadar
AlienVault OTX:  2 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions)
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      188.114.97.3 (CA, Toronto)
ASN:             AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.
Hosting org:     CloudFlare, Inc.
Registrar:       NameSilo, LLC

!!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!!
NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about
received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com)
for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our
X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence.
Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket —
NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

geministore.net: Confirmed Phishing Site

Analysis of geministore.net, observed as of July 26, 2026, identifies the domain as an active generic phishing infrastructure. The domain is registered through NameSilo, LLC and resolves to Cloudflare nameservers blair.ns.cloudflare.com and elliot.ns.cloudflare.com. VirusTotal reports that 2 of 91 security vendors have flagged the domain, indicating that a minority of scanners have identified malicious behavior.

The domain appears on a single external blocklist and is currently listed by PhishDestroy, confirming that at least one dedicated anti‑phishing service has taken mitigation action. An HTTP request to the domain returns a 200 OK status, showing that the site is reachable and serving content. No additional intelligence such as ASN, hosting IP, SSL certificate details, or page title has been provided, leaving those aspects unverified.

The limited detection count and single blocklist entry suggest that the phishing campaign may be in early stages or employing evasive techniques, but the presence on a reputable blocklist and the positive HTTP response warrant immediate defensive measures. Organizations should add geministore.net to network‑level deny lists, configure web proxies to block access, and monitor DNS logs for any resolution attempts. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised, as additional detections could emerge from broader scanning platforms.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       371636f73f99eb4a64e5d0f1a9fa1075
TLS cert SHA-256:      ef14e228236c2ac69f8e0bf524d3fdeb22e516a31b676f7e1d223ca4d27133af

## 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.
