## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-19 01:56:25 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies info-dydx-exchange-io.daftpage.com as a high-risk brand impersonation domain targeting the dYdX crypto exchange. Classified under brand impersonation, it aims to trick users with a misleading page title related to crypto trading.

The domain was created on October 24, 2021, registered via OVH, SAS, and resolves to IP 216.150.1.193. It appears on two security blocklists and is flagged for social engineering by Google Safe Browsing. VirusTotal shows 11 of 95 vendors detect suspicious activity on this domain.

Currently taken offline, this domain no longer resolves, mitigating immediate risk. Users should remain vigilant and avoid interacting with similar suspicious domains to protect their credentials and assets.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       bbec604be4e686c0fc7d6e1393b548d5
TLS cert SHA-256:      1a4cd2a6528a686f17020660dad4a280c41d1920f6b9608955f0f3d750bb56cc

## 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.
