## 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.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-05-11 14:42:53 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies sea-wheel.icu as a generic phishing domain actively distributing a crypto wallet drainer kit. The fraudulent site mimics legitimate cryptocurrency services to steal private keys and drain digital assets. No known brand association has been confirmed at this stage, suggesting a newly deployed campaign targeting unsuspecting users.

This domain was flagged with a VirusTotal detection score of 0/95, indicating evasion of current security engines. It was registered through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com, resolving to IP 188.114.96.3 with a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate. The domain was created on May 10, 2026, and remains unlisted on Google Safe Browsing (GSB) and major blocklists as of current analysis.

The threat remains under investigation with an active status. Users are advised to block access to sea-wheel.icu and avoid interacting with any associated wallet drainer links. Remaining risk is moderate due to zero detections and evasion tactics, warranting heightened caution until further intelligence emerges.

[Updates since narrative was generated:]
  - VirusTotal detections: now 7/92 (narrative was written when count was lower)

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260511-1414AC
Favicon MD5:       3c8b6314dfa262958c16db10f4f5eecb

## 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.
