## ANALYST NARRATIVE

[Generated: 2026-07-14 12:21:05 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

log-in-uphold-faq.tem3.io Fake Login Page Alert

Analysis indicates that the domain log-in-uphold-faq.tem3.io was registered on 2024-08-02 through GoDaddy and is currently using Cloudflare name servers (justin.ns.cloudflare.com, val.ns.cloudflare.com). The domain resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3, which is part of a CDN infrastructure commonly used to hide the origin server. The sub‑domain structure ("log‑in‑uphold‑faq") is consistent with attempts to masquerade as a legitimate login or support page for the financial service Uphold, although no direct evidence of the target brand has been captured in the available intelligence. VirusTotal scans have flagged the domain by eight of ninety‑one security vendors, indicating that automated analysis has identified malicious characteristics. The domain remains active as of the report date. Because the content of the site has not been examined, the exact phishing technique (credential harvesting, redirect, etc.) cannot be confirmed. Defenders should treat the domain as high‑risk, add it to URL and DNS blocklists, monitor for outbound connections to the associated IP, and enforce multi‑factor authentication for any credentials that could be targeted. Continuous observation of any changes to the hosting infrastructure or additional detection signals is recommended.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       0d3fb60340437536bbe06a463d19122c
TLS cert SHA-256:      59a222852ce3809be7a95f266c727e1e3bb9c98fb9e7593c1ee92b4da9ea2f2a

## 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 (operator 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.
