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: ["ns1.timeweb.ru", "ns2.timeweb.ru", "ns3.timeweb.org", "ns4.timeweb.org"] Registered: 2026-01-23 Expires: 2027-01-23 Page title: FACEIT Cloud Events HTTP response: 429 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: none Status: INVALID chain ## 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: 2026-01-23 (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) First reported: 2026-01-23 20:23:12 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-27 08:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-16 23:50:32 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019bebe1-2225-717d-ab28-becc816e22ce/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/eng-victoryhub.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.eng-victoryhub.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=eng-victoryhub.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/eng-victoryhub.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/eng-victoryhub.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 19:53:43 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, eng-victoryhub.com, poses a direct threat as a brand impersonation vector targeting Across, a recognized entity in decentralized finance and blockchain infrastructure. The site masquerades as a legitimate platform under the guise of 'FACEIT Cloud Events,' a title likely chosen to exploit trust in competitive gaming or cloud service ecosystems. Such impersonation domains are engineered to deceive users into disclosing sensitive credentials, authorizing fraudulent transactions, or interacting with malicious smart contracts, particularly in contexts where Across-related services are expected. The absence of an SSL certificate further undermines user security, increasing the likelihood of man-in-the-middle attacks or data interception during interactions with the domain. Analysis indicates eng-victoryhub.com was registered on January 23, 2026, through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk domains. The domain resolves to the IP address 87.249.38.179, hosted within the Russian Federation under AS9123 (JSC 'TIMEWEB'), an autonomous system with a history of hosting malicious infrastructure. Security vendors on VirusTotal flagged the domain at a rate of 24 out of 95, a significant detection ratio that underscores its malicious intent. Additionally, the domain appears on two independent security blocklists, reinforcing its classification as a confirmed threat. The combination of brand impersonation, lack of encryption, and hosting on a high-risk IP address elevates the risk profile of this domain. Users who visited eng-victoryhub.com or interacted with its content should immediately revoke any active sessions or authorizations tied to Across or related services. If credentials were entered, they must be changed across all platforms where identical or similar passwords were reused. Devices used to access the domain should undergo a full malware scan to detect potential secondary infections, such as crypto drainers or remote access trojans. Network-level monitoring for connections to 87.249.38.179 or domains registered via NiceNIC is recommended for organizations. Affected users should also report the incident to relevant security teams or fraud reporting channels to contribute to broader threat intelligence efforts. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 309a65e21148578d1c763ac748915a6c ## 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/eng-victoryhub.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=eng-victoryhub.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.
