## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-24 07:35:52 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

The domain usdt-bnb20.network, impersonating TrustWallet, has a high threat score of 76/100 and is currently down. It has been flagged as malicious by 4 out of 95 security vendors, including Ermes and Gridinsoft, and is listed on 2 public blocklists, though it is not flagged by Google Safe Browsing. 

Registered with Unstoppable Domains Inc, the domain was created on June 15, 2026, and first detected on June 23, 2026. The hosting IP is 216.198.79.1, which may require further investigation due to its association with this phishing operation. 

Block the domain at the perimeter and submit a report to the registrar's abuse desk to mitigate potential threats.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260623-9E6666
TLS cert SHA-256:      761ed461a4021252fde8b70be8fae067474e1c4ea106cb8b687a6447ce4ec458

## 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.
