## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-03 17:15:44 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies moonbeams-web3.com as a medium-risk generic phishing domain. The site appeared to impersonate legitimate Web3-related services, potentially targeting users for credential theft or crypto asset compromise. Its classification is based on deceptive behaviors observed prior to takedown.

Technical analysis reveals the domain was registered on February 21, 2026, through a defunct registrar known as Dead domain. It was quickly flagged on five different security blocklists, indicating widespread recognition of its malicious intent. The domain infrastructure lacked robust security measures and showed signs typical of short-lived phishing campaigns.

Currently, the domain moonbeams-web3.com is offline and no longer active, mitigating immediate risk. PhishDestroy advises users to remain cautious around similar Web3-themed sites and to monitor for any resurgence under new domains. This proactive takedown helps reduce exposure to phishing threats in the evolving blockchain ecosystem.

## 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.
