Hosting org: AS13335 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: ["chris.ns.cloudflare.com", "sunny.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-02-21 Page title: Un instant… ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-05-17 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: e2fd3c4de53abcd419416ff9327a4e1557129a00052ffea4ec9ba4e8e0fe6fd6 ## 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: 2026-02-21 (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) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-02-18 17:51:22 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-22 22:59:51 UTC Neutralised: 2026-02-27 05:24:41 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019c713a-2511-7111-bbfb-f1e88815cf50/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/bitwon.exchange crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.bitwon.exchange Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=bitwon.exchange AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/bitwon.exchange URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/bitwon.exchange/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 05:30:36 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy has identified bitwon.exchange as a domain involved in generic phishing activities, posing a medium risk to users. Phishing threats like this are dangerous because they aim to deceive individuals into divulging sensitive information, potentially leading to financial loss or identity theft. Although this domain is currently offline, users should remain cautious as similar threats may resurface in other forms. The domain bitwon.exchange was registered on February 21, 2026, through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited and resolved to the IP address 188.114.97.3. It appeared on one security blocklist and was flagged by 3 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal. The page title found was "Un instant…", suggesting an attempt to lure users quickly. The infrastructure details indicate that this domain was part of a phishing campaign but has since been taken offline, reducing immediate risk. Users are advised to avoid interacting with bitwon.exchange or any suspicious links associated with it. It is essential to verify URLs carefully before entering any personal or financial information. Reporting any phishing attempts to your organization's security team or through official channels can help prevent further attacks. Maintaining updated security software and awareness can mitigate risks posed by domains like bitwon.exchange. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon SHA-256: 06ad33604da8463d898e07e831f6944f96821b5adc7062434f707e0e1ec92b8f TLS cert SHA-256: e2fd3c4de53abcd419416ff9327a4e1557129a00052ffea4ec9ba4e8e0fe6fd6 ## 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/bitwon.exchange/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=bitwon.exchange 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.
