## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-05-01 13:27:19 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies start-eu-ledger.pages.dev as an active crypto drainer posing an elevated threat to cryptocurrency users. This domain is specifically designed to steal digital assets by tricking victims into connecting their wallets under false pretenses. The threat is ongoing and should be treated with high caution.  start-eu-ledger.pages.dev was registered through Cloudflare, Inc., and currently resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3. VirusTotal shows only 1 out of 95 security vendors flagging the domain, indicating low detection despite clear malicious intent. The domain uses a Google Trust Services SSL certificate, which may lend false legitimacy to unsuspecting users. While detailed registration data such as creation date is not publicly available, the combination of infrastructure, low detection rate, and active deployment suggests a sophisticated and evasive operation.  Crypto drainers like this one typically exploit wallet connection prompts, mimicking legitimate services (e.g., Ledger or EU-related financial platforms). To mitigate risk, users must never connect wallets to unknown domains, verify URLs through official channels, and use browser extensions that detect known drainer scripts. Blocking the IP 188.114.97.3 at the network level may also prevent access. Always double-check domains for typos or unusual TLDs like .pages.dev, commonly used in phishing campaigns.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      8e3b60241cd8118367ec9712b85ff4769c1a8069f6a3a760ec93734f62275f91

## 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.
