## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-05-01 15:37:24 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies monerogui.com as an active Monero-draining phishing site under investigation as of seed 2512f8. The domain shows no affiliation with legitimate Monero projects and employs a generic but deceptive naming convention to lure victims. While no specific drainer kit was detected during initial analysis, the site’s structure and recent creation suggest it is likely utilizing a kit or custom script to facilitate unauthorized Monero transactions.  

This domain was flagged with a VirusTotal detection score of 0 out of 95 engines, indicating it remains undetected by most antivirus solutions. It was registered through TUCOWS.COM, CO., resolving to IP address 69.10.36.99 and secured with a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate. The domain was created on October 07, 2025, and has not yet been listed on Google Safe Browsing (GSB) or other major blocklists, leaving potential victims exposed.  

As of now, monerogui.com remains active and poses a moderate risk to cryptocurrency users. Immediate actions include blocking the domain at the network perimeter, updating firewall rules to include IP 69.10.36.99, and distributing IOCs to threat intelligence platforms. Users are advised to avoid interacting with the site and to verify cryptocurrency-related domains through official channels. The remaining risk is classified as active but under investigation, with further analysis pending additional telemetry.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260501-0216EC
TLS cert SHA-256:      bc0cbd5fce1d5bd7369d9afecb0d63792b42a8c54d7e82488b67417d2103b4ba

## 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.
