Registrar: Name.com, Inc. Nameservers: joel.ns.cloudflare.com, tani.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2021-07-18 Expires: 2026-07-18 Page title: 404: This page could not be found. HTTP response: 200 ## 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: 2021-07-18 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-11 07:05:05 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-07-12 18:06:51 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-22 04:20:23 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-21 03:50:43 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f4f8f-c1a9-7256-b122-856452b4c179/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/08867a53-3563-41df-8753-0f09424b698b Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/dcnotexists9876543216c8cb8a8-1669-4888-9584-d7052cf15662.acquency.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.dcnotexists9876543216c8cb8a8-1669-4888-9584-d7052cf15662.acquency.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=dcnotexists9876543216c8cb8a8-1669-4888-9584-d7052cf15662.acquency.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/dcnotexists9876543216c8cb8a8-1669-4888-9584-d7052cf15662.acquency.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/dcnotexists9876543216c8cb8a8-1669-4888-9584-d7052cf15662.acquency.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-11 07:36:07 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] acquency.com Subdomain Credential Theft Threat Detected (Seed This domain is flagged as an active credential theft threat targeting users through deceptive login interfaces. Analysis indicates the subdomain dcnotexists9876543216c8cb8a8-1669-4888-9584-d7052cf15662.acquency.com operates under a generic phishing classification, with infrastructure designed to harvest authentication credentials. The risk level remains under investigation due to emerging indicators, though no immediate blocklist inclusions have been recorded. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on July 18, 2021, through Name.com, Inc., and currently resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3. Technologies detected include Node.js, React, Next.js, and Cloudflare services, suggesting a modern, scalable deployment. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, while VirusTotal reports 0 detections across 95 engines, indicating the campaign has evaded widespread detection thus far. No entries on major blocklists or threat intelligence feeds were identified at the time of assessment. Mitigation measures should focus on credential theft prevention. Network administrators are advised to implement DNS-based blocking for the full subdomain and monitor traffic to 188.114.96.3. End users should be trained to verify domain authenticity before entering login credentials, particularly for financial or sensitive accounts. Organizations may consider deploying browser isolation or sandboxing for untrusted domains matching this infrastructure pattern. Continuous monitoring of related subdomains under acquency.com is recommended, as additional malicious instances may emerge. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260712-87CFFF Favicon MD5: d9d065ac629140fe72275d2ac8ea55d4 ## 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 (operator 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/dcnotexists9876543216c8cb8a8-1669-4888-9584-d7052cf15662.acquency.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=dcnotexists9876543216c8cb8a8-1669-4888-9584-d7052cf15662.acquency.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
