Hosting org: AS13335 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: ["cass.ns.cloudflare.com", "memphis.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-02-21 Page title: Just a moment... HTTP response: 403 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-06-12 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 5be494541d300e55f49af778f6ccd7b90b061495fbc1012457817456ac95e9d5 ## 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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-02-20 19:24:40 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-23 20:20:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-23 19:20:35 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/019c7bdd-52b5-723a-84bb-10e7599df552/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/darknetmarketplace.online crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.darknetmarketplace.online Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=darknetmarketplace.online AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/darknetmarketplace.online URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/darknetmarketplace.online/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 06:09:15 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies darknetmarketplace.online as a domain associated with a low-level phishing threat. Although currently offline, the domain was flagged due to its suspicious activity and appearance linked to potentially deceptive practices. Users should be aware that this site, despite its misleading name suggesting a marketplace, could have been designed to trick visitors into divulging sensitive information. This phishing attempt likely involved impersonating legitimate darknet marketplaces to lure users into submitting credentials or personal data. The domain’s low trust scores from multiple security sources, its registration through a less reputable registrar, and its presence on a security blocklist, all indicate risk. The site resolved to an IP address known for hosting suspicious content and was identified in a threat intelligence pulse, supporting the conclusion that it was part of a phishing scheme aimed at harvesting user information. If you have visited darknetmarketplace.online, it is recommended to immediately avoid entering any personal or financial data on this domain. Users should scan their devices for malware and consider changing passwords if any authentication data was entered. Monitoring accounts for unusual activity and employing multi-factor authentication can further mitigate potential harm. Staying informed about such domains helps maintain online safety and prevent phishing scams. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 5be494541d300e55f49af778f6ccd7b90b061495fbc1012457817456ac95e9d5 ## 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/darknetmarketplace.online/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=darknetmarketplace.online 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.
