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: 2026-04-17 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-19 01:22:49 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-06-22 16:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-20 00:16:34 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019edd0a-7865-7787-a47a-0569bb942c6b/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/casdex.cc crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.casdex.cc Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=casdex.cc AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/casdex.cc URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/casdex.cc/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-22 15:24:17 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] A generic scam imitating Elon Musk's crypto casino is presented on casdex[.]cc, which is currently taken down. This domain has been flagged by 14 of 91 vendors on VirusTotal as malicious and is listed on 1 public blocklist, including PhishDestroy. The site was hosted on IP 172.67.132.189 in San Francisco, US, by Cloudflare, Inc. with ASN AS13335. The domain was created on 2026-04-17 and first detected by PhishDestroy on 2026-06-19, with an SSL issuer of Let's Encrypt. The page title claims to be Elon Musk’s Official Crypto Casino Powered by Blockchain. Defenders should update their blocklists with casdex[.]cc. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 936386e361020ac6bcebbcc772491fbb TLS cert SHA-256: df3decc443cce54db039d0aa5689b7cb7652fe78d709d2dd39a7c2fa56d34cd4 ## 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/casdex.cc/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=casdex.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.
