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: ns3.my-ndns.com, ns4.my-ndns.com Registered: 2026-06-20 Expires: 2027-06-20 Page title: ProTrade Academy - Learn Professional Trading Strategies Online HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YE2 Expires: 2026-09-26 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 85b1956c2d43a83f74ec458c0b6b68308b0b3667dadc8f4d05256ae3494d9cc0 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - ledger.com.auth-enusus.cc - trezor.io.auth-enusus.cc ## 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: 2026-06-20 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-29 02:23:04 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-29 00:25:15 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-30 08:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-29 06:17:57 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f10c0-39bd-753f-beb5-1be14b1b202b/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/cb61d247-9877-448a-857d-3b358cddbcf8 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/auth-enusus.cc crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.auth-enusus.cc Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=auth-enusus.cc AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/auth-enusus.cc URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/auth-enusus.cc/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-29 02:24:48 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, auth-enusus.cc, is flagged as an active credential theft operation targeting users of ProTrade Academy, a legitimate online trading education platform. Analysis indicates the site is designed to harvest login credentials, financial details, or personal information under the guise of professional trading courses. The domain remains operational as of the latest verification, posing a direct risk to visitors seeking educational resources. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain resolves to IP address 185.178.208.165 and was registered on June 20, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, a common tactic to appear legitimate. VirusTotal reports 3 of 95 security vendors have flagged this domain as malicious, with additional blocklist entries confirming its high-risk classification. The creation date, registrar choice, and hosting IP align with patterns observed in credential theft campaigns. Current status confirms the domain is still active and resolving. Organizations and individuals are advised to block this domain at the DNS or network level immediately. End users should avoid interacting with the site, reset credentials if exposure is suspected, and verify the legitimacy of any trading or educational platform through official channels. Monitoring for similar domains registered under the same registrar or IP range is recommended to preempt further threats. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260629-390DB5 Favicon MD5: 6de4cc4288e935a6ac8e7f4609abf08d TLS cert SHA-256: 85b1956c2d43a83f74ec458c0b6b68308b0b3667dadc8f4d05256ae3494d9cc0 ## 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/auth-enusus.cc/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=auth-enusus.cc 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.
