## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-05-14 18:32:58 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

hortenciateles.github.io is a confirmed crypto drainer scam site actively impersonating legitimate services to steal cryptocurrency from victims. PhishDestroy identifies this domain as engaged in fraudulent transactions targeting digital asset holders, with active operations observed in recent threat intelligence feeds. Users who interact with this domain risk irreversible financial losses due to unauthorized wallet drainers embedded in its codebase.

This domain was flagged by 5 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors and listed on OpenPhish blocklists, indicating widespread recognition as a malicious entity. Registered through GitHub, Inc., it resolves to IP 185.199.108.153 with a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate. Google Safe Browsing classifies it under SOCIAL_ENGINEERING due to its deceptive practices, while current data shows it remains active despite alerts.

Current status remains LIVE with elevated risk. Users must abstain from visiting hortenciateles.github.io or interacting with any assets hosted there. Verify unknown domains using PhishDestroy’s threat intelligence tool before engagement. Report suspicious activity immediately to relevant cryptocurrency platforms or wallet providers to mitigate potential theft. Block this domain at network and endpoint levels if encountered to prevent further compromise.

## 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.
