## 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: 2026-03-03 14:59:04 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies uphold-auth-io-cdn.pages.dev as a high-risk phishing domain designed to trick users into revealing sensitive information. This site poses a significant threat because it mimics legitimate services to steal personal data, potentially leading to financial loss or identity theft. The domain has been flagged on multiple security blocklists and is currently offline due to its malicious nature.

This phishing attempt operates by impersonating trusted platforms, possibly targeting users of the Uphold service. Visitors may be presented with fake login pages or requests to enter confidential credentials. The goal is to deceive users into submitting information that attackers can exploit. The website was registered recently through Cloudflare and flagged for social engineering tactics by Google Safe Browsing, underlining its deceptive intent.

If someone has visited uphold-auth-io-cdn.pages.dev, PhishDestroy recommends immediately changing any passwords that might have been entered and monitoring accounts for suspicious activity. Running a full antivirus and malware scan is also advised. Users should avoid clicking on any links from suspicious emails or messages that direct to this domain and report phishing attempts to their service providers to help protect others.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      ad90852cd43232fd3094f6bc7fd105adb0f626535fcc84cf3ff545052f425153

## 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.
