## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-07-08 14:35:52 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain is flagged as a high-risk crypto drainer phishing site targeting users of ESL Federal Credit Union. Analysis indicates the infrastructure is designed to siphon cryptocurrency assets by tricking victims into authorizing malicious transactions under the guise of a legitimate financial institution login portal. The threat type is highly specific, focusing on wallet-draining scripts rather than generic credential harvesting.  Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain verify-claims-esl.help was registered on July 7, 2026, through Porkbun LLC. It currently resolves to IP address 104.225.143.75 and presents an SSL certificate issued for the same domain. Security vendor detections on VirusTotal stand at 6/95, with no widespread blocklisting yet observed. The page title mimics ESL Federal Credit Union's legitimate login portal, increasing the likelihood of successful social engineering. The domain remains active as of this assessment.  Mitigation steps for this crypto drainer threat include immediate blocking of the domain and associated IP at network perimeter devices. Financial institutions should alert customers to verify URLs before entering credentials or connecting wallets. End users should revoke any suspicious wallet authorizations via blockchain explorers and monitor transaction histories for unauthorized activity. Organizations should prioritize detection of wallet-draining scripts in web traffic and implement transaction signing confirmation prompts for high-value operations.

Favicon MD5:       3cc5785be1e5c9462f29dfdb389acf10

## 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 (operator 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.
