## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-24 00:21:38 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies m.cachocoinbase.com as a low-risk brand impersonation domain targeting Coinbase users. The domain's primary threat lies in social engineering tactics aimed at deceiving users into believing it is associated with the legitimate Coinbase platform.

Supporting evidence includes the domain resolving to IP 188.114.96.3 and its classification under Google's Social Engineering warnings. It was registered recently on February 21, 2026, through Global Domain Group LLC, and appears on three security blocklists. VirusTotal analysis shows 2 out of 95 security vendors flagged it, indicating some detection but relatively low consensus. Attempts to access the domain currently result in a connection timeout error.

Users should avoid interacting with m.cachocoinbase.com and any communications linked to it. Since the domain is offline at present, the immediate risk is mitigated; however, vigilance is necessary when encountering similar suspicious domains impersonating trusted brands. PhishDestroy recommends relying on official Coinbase channels and reporting any suspicious activity to cybersecurity authorities.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      80125978511d0e13b75ef74f42ca7c5b53c064886e093467f05f3f9c11c12286

## 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.
