## 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.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-18 17:46:36 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies metamsklognn.gitbook.io as a brand impersonation domain targeting MetaMask users. Classified under brand_impersonation, this domain mimics MetaMask login pages to deceive users and potentially steal credentials. The page title 'MetaMask® Login* - | us' reinforces its intent to mislead.

Technically, the domain was created on March 14, 2026, and is registered through Cloudflare, Inc. It resolves to IP address 172.64.147.209. Although VirusTotal reports no detections to date, the domain appears on three separate security blocklists, indicating suspicious activity. The use of the GitBook.io platform for hosting adds a layer of complexity to its infrastructure.

Currently, the domain is offline, reflecting an active response to the threat. PhishDestroy continues to monitor this case under the unique seed 'deff67' and advises users to remain vigilant by avoiding interaction with this domain. Users should always verify URLs and access MetaMask services exclusively through official channels.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       16c727c8f6e3ff61b3551ae517883e16
TLS cert SHA-256:      a438a4e073260fcc8ef4463db227800d90eab44bfa4f612ea36a7c2ff690881b

## 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.
