# PhishDestroy threat dossier — portal.ct-gn.cc
================================================================

Fetched:   2026-07-17 07:16:19 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/portal.ct-gn.cc/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Brand Impersonation

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      12/91 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Chong Lua Dao, CyRadar, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Lionic, SOCRadar, Webroot
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Registered:      2026-06-12
HTTP response:   502

## 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.

## TIMELINE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Domain registered: 2026-06-12 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-06-13 00:31:17 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-07-17 08:20:40 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-13 09:02:12 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-25 21:42:18 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain, portal.ct-gn.cc, is identified as a generic phishing site designed to impersonate cryptocurrency wallet portals. Analysis indicates the infrastructure was likely established to harvest wallet credentials, seed phrases, or private keys through fraudulent login interfaces. No specific drainer kit signatures were confirmed, though the domain exhibits characteristics consistent with credential-theft campaigns targeting decentralized finance users. The absence of a known brand impersonation suggests a broader, opportunistic targeting strategy rather than a focused impersonation of a single platform.  Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 12, 2026, through an undisclosed registrar. At the time of assessment, the domain resolved to no active IP address, though historical records may exist. VirusTotal detections show 12 out of 95 security vendors flagged the domain as malicious, while Google Safe Browsing (GSB) status remains unconfirmed. The domain appears on a single security blocklist, specifically PhishDestroy, indicating limited but targeted detection efforts. No additional subdomains or associated infrastructure were identified in public threat feeds at the time of this report.  The domain is currently offline, reducing immediate exposure for end users. However, the elevated risk level persists due to the domain's recent creation and detection history. Response actions by hosting providers or registrars cannot be confirmed, though the takedown suggests mitigation efforts may have been successful. Remaining risk includes potential reactivation under a new IP or registrar, as well as the possibility of similar domains leveraging the same infrastructure. Users are advised to verify domain authenticity before entering credentials and to monitor wallet activity for unauthorized transactions. Security teams should update blocklists to include this domain and investigate related indicators for broader campaign linkages.

## 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 (operator 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.
