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: 2026-05-27 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-01 02:17:46 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-05-31 23:38:25 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-03 05:47:19 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-17 00:43:21 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e8050-3d41-74c9-9b7b-cecba77f36c7/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/a1139cde-0e84-4a5b-9ea4-bca3e5bac5c6 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/duskfundgrove.live crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.duskfundgrove.live Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=duskfundgrove.live AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/duskfundgrove.live URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/duskfundgrove.live/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 03:12:48 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, duskfundgrove.live, poses a significant risk as an AI-assisted trading investment phishing platform. The site falsely presents itself as an official platform for automated trading, using persuasive language and fabricated legitimacy to deceive users into disclosing financial details or transferring funds. Such schemes often exploit trends in cryptocurrency and AI-driven finance to lure victims, particularly those unfamiliar with technical or financial risks. The threat is compounded by the use of professional-looking interfaces and urgency-driven messaging, which can pressure users into making hasty decisions without proper verification. Analysis indicates this domain is engineered for malicious activity. It was registered on May 27, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk domains. Security vendors on VirusTotal flagged the domain, with 5 out of 95 engines detecting it as malicious. The site employs Cloudflare for hosting and protection, resolving to the IP address 188.114.97.3, and uses technologies such as jsDelivr, jQuery, and IPinfo to enhance functionality while masking its true intent. The Gridinsoft trust score of 0/100 further confirms its lack of credibility, and it appears on at least one security blocklist, reinforcing its classification as a phishing threat. If you visited duskfundgrove.live or interacted with its content, immediate action is required to mitigate potential harm. First, cease all communication with the site and avoid clicking any links or downloading files from it. If financial information or credentials were entered, contact your bank or payment provider to report potential fraud and request account monitoring or freezing. Change passwords for any accounts that may have been exposed, particularly those linked to financial services or email. Use reputable security tools to scan your device for malware, as phishing sites may deploy malicious scripts. Report the domain to relevant authorities or cybersecurity organizations to assist in broader threat mitigation efforts. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 5/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260531-8A4AFD Favicon MD5: 51ef3b344a3491ba956860bebe8eaef0 TLS cert SHA-256: 5d2b7c354bfca5d2399106e230806476468b1dd1503f4730691c191212e08720 ## 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/duskfundgrove.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=duskfundgrove.live 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.
