REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!! NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response.

PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2025-09-23 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2025-10-27 05:31:30 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-26 16:21:49 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-12 01:09:14 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019a2425-c3fd-749b-99a5-d6292ed7c664/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/app.asterdex-dev.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.app.asterdex-dev.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=app.asterdex-dev.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/app.asterdex-dev.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/app.asterdex-dev.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 14:14:50 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Asterdex-dev.com: High-Risk Crypto Drainer Targeting Across The domain app.asterdex-dev.com is identified as a high-risk crypto drainer targeting users of the Across brand. This domain uses the Angel Drainer kit, a sophisticated tool designed to steal cryptocurrency from users by impersonating legitimate trading platforms and tricking users into revealing sensitive information. Analysis indicates that the domain has been flagged by 13 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, suggesting a significant level of suspicion among cybersecurity professionals. The domain is registered through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited and resolves to the IP address 192.3.190.187, which is located in the United States and is part of the AS36352 HostPapa network. The domain was created on September 23, 2025, and currently appears on one security blocklist. It does not have an SSL certificate, which is a red flag for users, as secure websites typically use SSL to encrypt data. As of the latest assessment, the domain is offline, which may indicate that it has been taken down by the hosting provider or the domain registrar in response to the identified threat. However, the infrastructure used by the domain, including the IP address and registrar, remains a point of concern. Users are advised to avoid interacting with this domain and to monitor their cryptocurrency wallets for any unusual activity. Security teams should continue to monitor the domain and IP for any signs of reactivation, and ensure that network defenses are updated to block any future attempts to access this domain. ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/app.asterdex-dev.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=app.asterdex-dev.com 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
