## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-07-01 19:24:42 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

plasmaconnect.live functions as an active generic phishing site that deploys a fabricated Mainnets Connect interface to capture wallet credentials and private keys from users attempting blockchain connections. The infrastructure resolves to IP address 104.21.16.199 and presents an SSL certificate issued by Let's Encrypt, enabling encrypted transmission of stolen authentication data to the operators.

Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED on April 22, 2026, and maintains an active status with five detections recorded across 95 VirusTotal security vendors. The page title Mainnets Connect directly aligns with common wallet-draining tactics that solicit seed phrases or login approvals under the guise of mainnet synchronization.

Users who accessed plasmaconnect.live should immediately revoke any wallet approvals granted during the session, generate new keys on unaffected devices, and monitor blockchain transactions for unauthorized outflows. Network logs and browser history should be examined for additional redirects to related domains, while direct interaction with the IP 104.21.16.199 should be blocked at the firewall level to prevent further credential exposure.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260701-27AB07
Favicon MD5:       e7cc3b33278adcdae570b58fc3b2e63a
TLS cert SHA-256:      e3d4c8a884b2cc6e973912a12385ed642a49d4c1bddeb8d1ff06a9cda514427b

## 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.
