## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

URLQuery:        100 detections
Public blocklists: listed on 5 independent blocklists
Google Safe Browsing: FLAGGED

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      172.67.140.221 (US, San Francisco)
ASN:             ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET, US
Hosting org:     AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.

Page title:      Linea Hub | Airdrop

## TLS CERTIFICATE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     none
Status:     INVALID chain

## 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.

## TIMELINE
----------------------------------------------------------------
First detected:    2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2025-09-14 06:45:38 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-02 17:20:40 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-02-23 03:15:03 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-19 01:34:18 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies llinea-build.network as a high-risk crypto drainer domain targeting users of the Linea brand. This domain was designed to steal cryptocurrency assets by mimicking a legitimate Linea interface with a fake "Linea Hub | Airdrop" page. Such scams can lead to significant financial losses by tricking users into authorizing unauthorized transactions or revealing private keys.

The malicious infrastructure behind llinea-build.network included the use of the Angel Drainer kit, a known cryptocurrency theft tool. The domain resolved to IP 172.67.140.221 and appeared on seven different security blocklists. VirusTotal analysis flagged it by 13 out of 95 security vendors, and Google Safe Browsing categorized it under social engineering threats. The domain has since been taken offline, reducing immediate risk but not eliminating potential for new variants.

Users should remain vigilant against any communications or websites claiming to offer Linea-related airdrops or crypto services, especially those unfamiliar or unsolicited. It is crucial never to enter private keys or approve transactions on unverified sites. Employ robust security practices such as using hardware wallets and verifying URLs carefully. Reporting suspicious domains like llinea-build.network to security services can help protect the community.

## 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.
