Registrar contextNiceNIC
Stored registration data identifies NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED (IANA 3765) as the registrar. PhishDestroy maintains separate NiceNIC abuse-report research; registrar association is contextual and is not an independent detection for this domain.
The domain cs2challenger.com was registered on December 17, 2025 through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited and currently resolves to the Cloudflare address 172.67.136.168 (AS13335, United States). The domain is listed on one public security blocklist and is actively blocked by PhishDestroy, indicating that defenders have already taken mitigation steps. Technical profiling shows no SSL certificate is presented, and the authoritative nameservers are jen.ns.cloudflare.com and norm.ns.cloudflare.com, consistent with standard Cloudflare hosting. Reputation scores are low: Gridinsoft assigns a trust rating of 0 out of 100, while Scamadviser reports a 40‑point score, both reflecting a high likelihood of malicious use.
VirusTotal analysis reports that 19 of 93 scanning engines flag the domain, reinforcing the suspicion of abusive activity. AlienVault OTX has associated the domain with 16 distinct threat‑intel pulses, suggesting that it has been observed in multiple investigations. The primary malicious behavior is identified as a brand impersonation campaign targeting the cs2 brand, as indicated by the scam type and the explicit impersonation flag. While the site is presently offline, the infrastructure—particularly the use of Cloudflare’s network—allows for rapid re‑deployment or redirection to new payloads.
Defenders should continue to block the domain at perimeter filters, update URL reputation lists, and monitor the associated IP range for any resurgence. Because the domain lacks TLS, any future re‑activation would be visible through missing HTTPS indicators, offering an additional detection cue. Ongoing threat‑intel correlation with the identified OTX pulses is recommended to capture any emerging variants that reuse the same registration or hosting patterns.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.
This timeline displays historical security and status checkpoints observed by the PhishDestroy automated monitoring network. It records domain lifecycle updates, scanner changes, and threat telemetry over time.
12 recorded events. These records describe collected evidence, outgoing notifications and publication; they do not confirm a complete investigation or a takedown.
