TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 57/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      2/95 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: G-Data, Gridinsoft
Public blocklists: listed on 2 independent blocklists
Victim re-reports (public form): 1

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      82.25.96.225 (DE, Frankfurt am Main)
ASN:             ASAS47583 AS-HOSTINGER Hostinger International Limited, CY

## TLS CERTIFICATE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     none
Status:     INVALID chain

## 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: 2026-03-24 00:24:11 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies peapsods.finance as a low-risk generic phishing domain designed to trick users with a fake 'Bot Verification' page. The threat is classified as phishing aimed at credential theft or user deception.

The domain was registered via HOSTINGER operations, UAB and resolved to IP 82.25.96.225. It appeared on two security blocklists and was flagged by 2 of 95 VirusTotal vendors, indicating limited but present suspicion. The infrastructure reflects typical low-sophistication phishing tactics.

Currently, peapsods.finance is offline, reducing immediate risk. Users are advised to avoid this domain and similar fake verification pages. Continuous monitoring and blocking of this domain on security tools remain recommended.

## EVIDENCE HASHES

Favicon SHA-256:       e7db95c97a5d45787cc3e40cbcb93b748fefc65bc14e162c746e37f979861729

## 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.
