## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-04-16 00:54:04 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies protocnodes.pages.dev as a live crypto drainer posing as a legitimate crypto service provider. This domain is actively mimicking protocols' node dashboards to trick users into connecting crypto wallets and signing malicious transactions that drain assets without consent. Security teams should block this domain at DNS and proxy levels immediately to prevent further compromise through trusted cloud provider infrastructure.

  This domain was flagged for generic phishing behavior with emerging crypto drainer capabilities, currently showing zero detections out of 95 VirusTotal scans. It resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3 via Cloudflare’s infrastructure with a Google Trust Services SSL certificate, suggesting evasive hosting and HTTPS encryption to appear legitimate. Registrar data indicates recent domain creation to facilitate short-lived campaigns targeting cryptocurrency users' trust through name similarity and protocol branding.

  If you visited protocnodes.pages.dev or entered any credentials or connected a wallet, disconnect from the internet immediately and revoke all wallet permissions connected to the browser or application. Reset all passwords used on this site and scan devices for malware or browser extensions added during the visit. Report wallet addresses and transactions involving this domain to relevant blockchain monitoring platforms and law enforcement if funds were stolen to aid in tracking and recovery efforts.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       00f20096c45ed4df9997af0606fcf2cd
TLS cert SHA-256:      7816eea9651986b5d580dfceee6fb510b3b00c63782e60e1b64ec3fe01a88cc8

## 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.
