# PhishDestroy threat dossier — baseshield.info ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-02 18:20:55 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/baseshield.info/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: Base ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 5/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Fortinet, URLQuery URLQuery: 2 detections AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.97.3 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. 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: hank.ns.cloudflare.com, piper.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-06-28 Expires: 2027-06-28 Page title: Base Wallet ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-09-26 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 15335af3e9d332ad1565a66e0771bb45624e6c41f031b78f0ba54855cc557f43 ## 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: 2026-06-28 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-01 06:06:45 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-07-01 04:12:52 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-02 20:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-01 12:02:52 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f1bda-5565-705d-a542-8ea4f72cf092/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/aba68af9-2478-4b9e-96d2-0dde3f018ee3 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/baseshield.info crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.baseshield.info Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=baseshield.info AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/baseshield.info URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/baseshield.info/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-01 07:26:26 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, baseshield.info, is flagged as an active credential-harvesting phishing site impersonating the Base Wallet cryptocurrency platform. Analysis indicates the site employs brand impersonation tactics, presenting itself as the legitimate Base Wallet interface to deceive users into submitting sensitive credentials, including wallet recovery phrases and private keys. The page title explicitly mirrors the authentic service, displaying 'Base Wallet' to enhance credibility and increase the likelihood of successful compromise. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 28, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk domains. The site resolves to the IP address 188.114.97.3, which has been observed in other low-reputation hosting environments. Detection metrics from VirusTotal indicate that 2 out of 95 security vendors have flagged the domain as malicious, while AlienVault OTX records its presence in one threat intelligence pulse. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, providing a superficial layer of legitimacy that may mislead unsuspecting users. No entries were found in Google Safe Browsing at the time of analysis, though this does not preclude the domain from being blocked by other security layers. As of the latest assessment, baseshield.info remains operational, posing an ongoing risk to users of the Base platform. The domain's infrastructure and registration details suggest a deliberate effort to evade detection, while its active status indicates that no effective takedown has been executed. Users are advised to verify domain authenticity through official channels before interacting with any wallet-related services. Organizations should update blocklists to include this domain and its associated IP address, while security teams are encouraged to monitor for further indicators of compromise linked to this campaign. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260701-506213 Favicon MD5: b8129357411f84d16e99a05a291434b0 TLS cert SHA-256: 15335af3e9d332ad1565a66e0771bb45624e6c41f031b78f0ba54855cc557f43 ## 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/baseshield.info/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=baseshield.info 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.
