## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-04-23 19:02:28 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies sscalping.com as a suspected crypto drainer phishing domain currently under investigation. This site is flagged for hosting malicious content designed to deceive users into connecting cryptocurrency wallets and draining funds. The domain is considered ACTIVE and poses a HIGH RISK to visitors, particularly those engaging with cryptocurrency transactions or trading platforms. Users are advised to avoid interaction and verify the site's safety status before proceeding.  

This domain resolves to IP address 102.204.222.8 and was registered on April 21, 2026 through Cloudflare, Inc. as the registrar. The domain utilizes a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate for HTTPS encryption, which may lend an air of legitimacy to unsuspecting users. VirusTotal currently reports 0 detections out of 95 scanning engines, indicating that mainstream security tools have not yet flagged this domain. Given the recency of its creation and lack of detections, sscalping.com represents a stealthy and evolving threat. The absence of this domain on major blocklists further underscores the need for proactive monitoring and community-driven threat intelligence.  

To mitigate risks associated with crypto drainer phishing sites like sscalping.com, users should avoid clicking links from untrusted sources and verify domain reputations on PhishDestroy before engaging. Cryptocurrency users must scrutinize wallet connection requests and never approve transactions from unknown or suspicious domains. Organizations should deploy endpoint protection and network monitoring to detect anomalous outbound connections to this IP (102.204.222.8). Immediate actions include reporting this domain to threat intelligence platforms and updating browser blocklists to prevent access. Always cross-check domain registration details and SSL certificates for inconsistencies, as these are common tactics used by threat actors to appear legitimate.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       7f080bfaed05d5cd1f0ec38d006f13fa
TLS cert SHA-256:      8c79032c031925da8424bfeb93808cc500a2751938544fdef8a12fc0ece0aad5

## 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.
