menubanking.xyz Fake Banking Alert

Based on the provided data, this site, menubanking.xyz, is a newly registered domain that poses a generic threat as a potentially malicious or unwanted site. The domain name "menubanking" suggests an attempt to impersonate a banking or financial service, though no specific brand is identified in the available data. The primary threat is that the site may be used for phishing, malware distribution, or other fraudulent activities.

Technical evidence shows the domain was flagged by 4 out of 95 VirusTotal vendors, including alphaMountain.ai, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, and SOCRadar. It is listed on 1 blocklist. The domain was created on 2026-06-18 and is registered with GMO Internet, Inc. The IP address is 13.248.169.48. The nameservers are ns5.afternic.com and ns6.afternic.com, with a verification entry. No SSL certificate data is provided.

The domain status is ACTIVE. The risk score is 65, indicating a medium-to-high risk level. The combination of low detection rate, recent creation date, and suggestive domain name warrants caution.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260624-89D579
Favicon MD5:       0f51e723b5ea18cf223bd66aaf0bda85
TLS cert SHA-256:      037f52ff58adadc2aa8895ca2f196f3c1fb76db8d6e030e100c8f10551f00769

## 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.
