Hosting org: CloudFlare, Inc. Registrar: NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!! NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-real https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-verdict Nameservers: chan.ns.cloudflare.com, titan.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-05-13 Expires: 2027-05-13 Page title: AlphaPepe - Best Crypto Presale 2026 HTTP response: 403 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E7 Expires: 2026-08-11 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: dd15fb0e64587358fda6b0dc5317b211044ac24f09ea89768b1f5edefb93d491 ## 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. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-05-13 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-14 21:45:21 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-05-14 18:45:39 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-27 15:45:24 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-16 23:52:28 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e27cc-9129-708e-8324-4857a377ebcf/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/266b31e6-3dc7-4f9a-8ec5-56bf841c1700 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/alphapepetoken.live crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.alphapepetoken.live Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=alphapepetoken.live AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/alphapepetoken.live URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/alphapepetoken.live/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-14 21:46:57 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies alphapepetoken.live as an active brand impersonation scam masquerading as OKX, a major cryptocurrency exchange. This domain poses a direct threat to users seeking legitimate trading services and may attempt credential theft or crypto drainer deployment upon interaction. The site leverages visual and textual cues to appear authentic, deceiving visitors into entering sensitive account information or approving malicious blockchain transactions. This domain was flagged on May 13, 2024, and is registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. It resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3 and uses a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate to enhance legitimacy. As of the latest scan, VirusTotal reports 0 detections out of 95 engines, indicating it remains undetected by most antivirus platforms. No entries were found on public blocklists at the time of analysis, and trust scores remain critically low due to its recent creation and impersonation nature. Users should immediately cease all interaction with alphapepetoken.live and avoid entering credentials or connecting wallets. Report the domain to your exchange (OKX) via official support channels and file abuse reports with your domain registrar and hosting provider. Enable multi-factor authentication (MFA) on all exchange accounts and use hardware wallets or transaction simulation tools when interacting with crypto platforms. Monitor wallet and account activity for unauthorized transactions. Consider domain blocking at the network level if feasible. Always verify URLs via official OKX domains (okx.com) before any interaction. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260514-33AF32 Favicon MD5: 1d41ab0d996e04c04ed8b423523552be TLS cert SHA-256: dd15fb0e64587358fda6b0dc5317b211044ac24f09ea89768b1f5edefb93d491 ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/alphapepetoken.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=alphapepetoken.live Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
