## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-19 02:20:10 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies mtechtrade.com as a medium-risk generic phishing domain. It was registered recently on June 22, 2024, and classified based on suspicious behavior patterns.

The domain resolves to IP 107.173.193.235 and is registered through Hosting Concepts B.V. It has a Gridinsoft trust score of 39/100 and appears on one security blocklist. VirusTotal flags it by 8 out of 95 vendors, signaling potential phishing infrastructure.

Currently taken offline, mtechtrade.com is no longer active. Users are advised to remain vigilant and avoid interacting with this domain or any related communications.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       b9e9cfccd15ebf492b4410f605037a10
TLS cert SHA-256:      b11facf140ed40387b83ab6275a6327169b40c7badf45dd4abfcd9ef5fa0d601

## 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.
