## 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: 2026-05-12 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-05-13 01:30:09 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-07-02 16:20:38 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-05-13 10:37:19 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-26 13:44:50 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain portaldetran-sc.com is identified as a generic phishing site impersonating a government portal, specifically the Department of Traffic in Santa Catarina, Brazil. The current status of the domain is active, posing a significant threat to users who may mistake it for a legitimate government resource.

Analysis indicates that portaldetran-sc.com is flagged by 3 of 95 VirusTotal vendors, suggesting that a small but notable portion of security experts consider it malicious. The domain is registered through Cloudflare, Inc., and resolves to the IP address 188.114.97.3. It was created on May 12, 2026, and appears on 1 security blocklist. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, which, while legitimate, does not guarantee the site's safety. The presence of the domain in 1 threat intelligence pulse on AlienVault OTX further supports its classification as a phishing site.

Given the current status of the domain, users are advised to exercise caution and avoid interacting with it. Organizations should update their security policies to include this domain in their blocklists and monitor network traffic for any attempts to access it. Additionally, users should verify the authenticity of any communication purportedly from the Department of Traffic in Santa Catarina by cross-referencing with official sources before providing any personal or sensitive information.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      30ab5dc7ecb63f5cf59e0e3d58cb8108e8c856bce97b2fa4821e16d0d818c957

## 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.
