## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-30 20:26:37 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

Risk level is high for imsites-whatsapp.com.cn, which conducts credential theft via impersonation of the WhatsApp brand through a fake web interface mimicking official login flows.

Infrastructure analysis reveals VirusTotal flags at 19/95, registration via PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com, resolution to IP 156.239.9.106, domain creation on June 17, 2026, presence on 2 security blocklists including PhishDestroy and OpenPhish, appearance in 1 AlienVault OTX pulse, Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, and continued active status.

Users must avoid entering any credentials on the domain, refrain from visiting imsites-whatsapp.com.cn entirely, verify all WhatsApp access only through official applications or verified web portals, and report the domain to relevant blocklist maintainers for immediate takedown.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71

## 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.
