area.nx-rise.org Generic Phishing Alert

Analysis indicates that area.nx-rise.org is an active generic phishing infrastructure flagged as high risk. The domain is listed on three security blocklists and is currently blocked by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. Its SSL certificate is issued by Let’s Encrypt (identifier YE2) and the domain was registered via Internet Domain Service BS Corp. VirusTotal scans show twelve out of ninety‑one security vendors flagging the domain as malicious. The domain resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3, which is hosted by CloudFlare, Inc. in Canada and uses Cloudflare’s authoritative nameservers dom.ns.cloudflare.com and simone.ns.cloudflare.com. HTTP requests to the domain return a 200 status code, confirming that the web service is operational. While the specific lures or credential‑harvesting pages have not been publicly documented, the combined evidence of blocklist listings, vendor detections, and active hosting suggests a live phishing campaign. Defenders should block the domain at network perimeters, update intrusion‑prevention signatures, and monitor outbound connections for traffic to 188.114.97.3. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised as additional indicators may emerge.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      ac72170735cf1986985eeba3aa9f980d76885cd0d30027c3831cc4755bae0193

## 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.
