Scam classification: cryptocurrency
Targeted brand: MetaMask

## DETECTION EVIDENCE

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Registrar:       Gname.com Pte. Ltd.
Nameservers:     ["a2.share-dns.com", "b2.share-dns.net"]
Registered:      2026-02-21

## 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
----------------------------------------------------------------
Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-02-26 23:19:28 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
Last verified:     2026-05-31 01:20:34 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-18 23:53:22 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies metamask.asia as a high-risk domain impersonating the legitimate MetaMask brand. This deceptive site poses significant danger by misleading users into believing they are interacting with the official MetaMask service, potentially exposing their sensitive information and digital assets to fraudsters.

This phishing scheme works by mimicking MetaMask's branding and interface, enticing users to enter private keys, passwords, or wallet credentials. The domain was flagged by 22 security vendors on VirusTotal, appeared in 18 AlienVault OTX threat pulses, and was listed on multiple security blocklists. Such indicators confirm its malicious intent before it was taken offline.

If you visited metamask.asia, immediately avoid entering any personal or wallet details. Run security scans on your devices, change any exposed credentials, and monitor your accounts for suspicious activity. For ongoing protection, rely on verified sources and official MetaMask channels. PhishDestroy recommends reporting suspicious domains to prevent further fraud.

## 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.
