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.

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: 2026-06-18 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-28 15:41:09 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-28 14:21:57 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-30 04:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-29 00:18:17 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f0e75-1991-70ea-963d-e183fa86e117/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/da00914a-5228-45bd-8e52-af36008791dc Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/buffaloswildswings.today crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.buffaloswildswings.today Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=buffaloswildswings.today AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/buffaloswildswings.today URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/buffaloswildswings.today/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-28 15:45:51 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain is flagged as a high-risk brand impersonation site targeting Buffalo Wild Wings patrons. Analysis indicates the site mimics the official Buffalo Wild Wings branding, including the page title 'Buffalo Wild Wings | Wings. Beer. Sports,' to deceive visitors into entering login credentials, payment details, or other sensitive information. The intent is likely credential theft or financial fraud, with attackers exploiting the trust associated with the well-known restaurant chain to harvest user data for malicious purposes. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 18, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with suspicious domains. It currently resolves to IP address 104.21.42.247 and uses an SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services, which may lend a false sense of legitimacy. Despite its recent creation, only 1 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal has flagged the domain as malicious, suggesting it may still evade detection in some security tools. The domain remains active and unblocked in many environments, increasing the risk of exposure to unsuspecting users. If you or a user within your network visited buffaloswildswings.today, immediate action is required. Disconnect the affected device from the network to prevent potential data exfiltration. Reset any credentials entered on the site, particularly those associated with financial accounts or corporate systems. Scan the device using updated security tools to detect malware or unauthorized access. Monitor accounts linked to the compromised credentials for suspicious activity, such as unauthorized transactions or login attempts. Report the incident to your organization's security team or a trusted cybersecurity professional for further analysis and remediation. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260628-2C7691 Favicon MD5: 463532b964fadb7cabb918b957366e95 TLS cert SHA-256: 7641857acbc371cad3db0e73281c2449838ae153122c0a3fd7aa17ee694a58d4 ## 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/buffaloswildswings.today/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=buffaloswildswings.today 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.
