# PhishDestroy threat dossier — convregepay.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-25 00:09:42 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/convregepay.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 67/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Fake Exchange ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 4/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, SOCRadar, ThreatHive URLQuery: 2 detections ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 172.67.143.201 (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: dell.ns.cloudflare.com, ryan.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-04-04 HTTP response: 530 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E8 Expires: 2026-06-30 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 6888b26eda0a386374058e026c5db77cf514e9962a76a46ad5c49487018f2e45 ## 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: 2026-04-04 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-04 18:36:20 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-04 15:38:54 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-24 07:40:11 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-11 11:54:05 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/019d5921-d641-7258-a207-b7df029415a4/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/a3204859-a2db-4586-80cc-d04acb3aafd9 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/convregepay.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.convregepay.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=convregepay.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/convregepay.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/convregepay.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-04 18:39:06 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies a phishing operation centered around convregepay.com, a recently registered domain designed to impersonate a legitimate payment processor. This site attempts to trick users into surrendering sensitive financial or login credentials under the guise of processing transactions. While it currently evades detection tools with 0 detections out of 95 scanners on VirusTotal, its malicious intent is revealed by its recent creation date of March 30, 2026, and its association with a registrar known for shielding threat actors. This domain was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar that has been implicated in previous phishing campaigns. The site operates from IP address 172.67.143.201 and uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate—a tactic often leveraged to lend false credibility to fraudulent sites. The combination of a freshly minted domain, low detection rates, and infrastructure commonly abused by cybercriminals underscores the urgency to treat this domain as a high-risk threat. If you or someone in your organization has visited convregepay.com, avoid entering any personal, payment, or login details. Disconnect from the network immediately and scan all affected devices for malware. Report the domain to your security team or ISP to block further access. Proactively block convregepay.com at the firewall and DNS level to prevent additional exposure. Stay vigilant: phishing sites evolve rapidly, and even unflagged domains can pose significant risks to unwary users. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260404-45C7BB Favicon MD5: 0121063a3eedad7142759a5c742b27c9 TLS cert SHA-256: 6888b26eda0a386374058e026c5db77cf514e9962a76a46ad5c49487018f2e45 ## 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/convregepay.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=convregepay.com 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.
