## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Status: CLOSED — no report required.
This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either
the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the
operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file
for audit but no formal notice was sent.

Domain registered: 2026-04-06 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)

Last verified:     2026-04-23 07:40:41 UTC

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-04-06 16:10:04 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy has flagged gfochains.com as a generic phishing website. This indicates the site is designed to deceive visitors into divulging sensitive information, such as usernames, passwords, or financial details, through deceptive tactics. Users should exercise extreme caution and avoid interacting with any forms or links on this website. The site's purpose is to mimic legitimate websites to harvest user credentials or other personal data.  

Technical indicators for gfochains.com include a VirusTotal detection ratio of 0/95, meaning it has not yet been widely flagged as malicious. The domain is registered through Cloudflare, Inc., and its creation date is January 07, 2026. The site resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3. The SSL certificate is provided by Google Trust Services. The relative newness of the domain (created in 2026) is a common tactic used by malicious actors to evade detection. These details, taken together, suggest a potential phishing operation.  

Users who have visited gfochains.com are strongly advised to change their passwords immediately, especially if they entered any personal information on the site. They should also monitor their accounts for any signs of unauthorized activity. It is crucial to remain vigilant against potential phishing attempts and to verify the legitimacy of websites before entering any sensitive data. If you suspect you have been a victim of phishing, report the incident to the appropriate authorities and consider placing a fraud alert on your credit report.

[Updates since narrative was generated:]
  - VirusTotal detections: now 1/94 (narrative was written when count was lower)

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       21653afbe028bd39bf773e5d37170d5e
TLS cert SHA-256:      713d52203a1f6824eb2e2e5d5f83385e2542c217d0d2c65a13ca0feb0c50966f

## 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.
