# PhishDestroy threat dossier — calcexc.app ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-26 23:16:54 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/calcexc.app/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 49/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: SOCRadar URLQuery: 1 detections ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.96.3 (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: ["edna.ns.cloudflare.com", "jasper.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-03-26 Expires: 2026-07-03 Page title: Crypto Arbitrage ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-06-17 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 8ec59da3096dfe612630a1be4f09e1fc67258b3ae9e0a35ff1c978cb37093382 ## 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: 2026-03-26 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-03-27 00:20:54 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-03-26 21:21:47 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-27 01:40:13 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-23 00:28:49 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/019d2c03-ab8a-71ef-9d28-625aab3b134a/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/b47e2a1d-d9c4-4bd8-baef-fdf510d1b343 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/calcexc.app crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.calcexc.app Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=calcexc.app AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/calcexc.app URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/calcexc.app/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-27 00:21:37 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies calcexc.app as an active credential phishing domain masquerading as a calculator application to harvest user login details. This domain, registered on July 03, 2025, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, resolves to IP 188.114.96.3 and currently shows zero detections on VirusTotal out of 95 security engines scanned. The presence of a valid Google Trust Services SSL certificate may be leveraged to enhance trustworthiness, potentially tricking users into entering sensitive information under false pretenses. Technical analysis reveals minimal blocklist coverage despite suspicious characteristics, with no detections registered across VirusTotal's sandbox and antivirus platforms. The domain's recent creation date—just days ago—coupled with its minimal detection footprint, suggests it may be a newly deployed campaign in its early stages. Attackers frequently exploit newly registered domains to evade existing security measures, making this a critical window for proactive defense. Users who have interacted with calcexc.app by downloading content, entering credentials, or signing in should immediately cease further interaction. If credentials were entered, change passwords immediately and enable multi-factor authentication where possible. Report the domain to your security team or block it via DNS or firewall rules using the IP 188.114.96.3. Monitor accounts for unusual activity and consider running a malware scan. Organizations are advised to update threat intelligence feeds and network defenses to include this indicator of compromise (IOC) to prevent lateral spread. This advisory will be updated as new intelligence emerges. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260326-B7ABBB Favicon MD5: 67c9253301f00e04ff38396103841d6a TLS cert SHA-256: 8ec59da3096dfe612630a1be4f09e1fc67258b3ae9e0a35ff1c978cb37093382 ## 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/calcexc.app/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=calcexc.app 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.
