## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      2/93 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, G-Data
Public blocklists: listed on 2 independent blocklists

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      104.21.16.1 (US, San Francisco)
ASN:             ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET, US

----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     WE1
Status:     INVALID chain

## 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: 2026-03-24 00:32:41 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies zeuscoin.top as a domain impersonating the popular cryptocurrency wallet brand Metamask. Although the risk level is assessed as low, the site attempts to deceive users by presenting itself under the brand identity of Metamask, potentially leading to credential theft and unauthorized access to crypto assets. Users should be cautious, as phishing sites often exploit brand trust to compromise security.

This phishing operates by mimicking Metamask’s branding and user interface, likely attempting to lure visitors into submitting their private keys or login credentials. The domain was created recently, in February 2026, and currently remains active. Despite only a small number of security scanners flagging the site, and its presence on four blocklists, the domain’s intent to impersonate a well-known wallet suggests caution. The IP address 104.21.16.1 hosts the site, which is identified under the page title 'ZEUS'—a misleading element diverging from the genuine Metamask branding.

If someone has visited zeuscoin.top, they should immediately refrain from entering any personal or wallet credentials if they have not done so already. If credentials were submitted, it is critical to change associated passwords and consider transferring funds to a new wallet to prevent loss. Users should also enable two-factor authentication where possible and use official channels to verify any wallet-related communication. Regularly updating security software and consulting trusted sources like PhishDestroy can help in staying protected from such impersonation attempts.

## 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.
