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: 2026-05-28 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-01 02:13:43 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-05-31 23:43:12 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-29 00:20:41 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-15 00:51:13 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e804e-9007-74f9-a68e-9c99e7c7ef73/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/bfe9cdb9-f472-4b6c-8319-dcc8dbc5dc00 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/finmanage.live crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.finmanage.live Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=finmanage.live AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/finmanage.live URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/finmanage.live/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 03:13:07 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain finmanage.live is identified as a generic phishing domain, specifically impersonating an AI trading platform called FinManage. The domain is currently offline and has been taken down as part of a security response. This impersonation could lead users to divulge sensitive financial information or credentials, posing a significant risk to personal and financial data security. Analysis indicates that the domain finmanage.live is flagged by 8 of 95 VirusTotal vendors, suggesting a moderate to elevated level of suspicion. The domain is registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and resolves to the IP address 172.67.197.149. It was created on May 28, 2026, and currently appears on 1 security blocklist. The SSL certificate for the domain is issued by Let's Encrypt, which is commonly used by both legitimate and malicious sites. The Gridinsoft trust score for finmanage.live is 0/100, indicating a complete lack of trustworthiness. Additionally, the domain is blocked by PhishDestroy, further corroborating its malicious nature. Given the current status of the domain being offline, users are advised to remain vigilant and avoid any links or communications that direct them to this domain. Security teams should monitor for any reactivation of the domain and update their blocklists accordingly. It is recommended that users who may have interacted with this domain change their passwords and monitor their financial accounts for any unauthorized activity. Organizations should educate their employees about the risks of brand impersonation and the importance of verifying URLs and SSL certificates before entering sensitive information. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 8/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260531-C96B63 Favicon MD5: 51ef3b344a3491ba956860bebe8eaef0 TLS cert SHA-256: 80e361d92ed1e15b6bd460f3017cfb05307b697ca3331983d5894e469a2872e1 ## 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/finmanage.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=finmanage.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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
