## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-19 05:40:45 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies pepecoln.net as a generic phishing domain targeting unsuspecting users. The domain was registered recently, on September 9, 2025, and has been classified under medium risk due to its potential for credential theft and fraudulent activities. The page title 'Just a moment...' is commonly used in phishing setups to simulate legitimate processes and delay detection.

Technically, pepecoln.net resolves to IP address 104.21.75.136 and has been registered through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com. It appears on three different security blocklists, indicating consensus among multiple threat intelligence sources. VirusTotal scans flagged the domain by 3 out of 95 security vendors, reinforcing suspicion but showing it is not yet widely recognized. These indicators suggest an infrastructure designed for phishing attacks but with limited exposure so far.

The domain is currently offline, which may reflect active takedown efforts or preemptive measures by security teams. Users and organizations are advised not to interact with any URLs or emails containing pepecoln.net. PhishDestroy recommends continued monitoring in case of domain resurrection or related campaigns, and suggests updating endpoint protection to detect any residues of associated phishing attempts.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon SHA-256:       e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855
TLS cert SHA-256:      edf384cfc54004e5269ff867586b7086e7c2f680cdb9392644a15baa5afe6f9d

## 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.
