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: keaton.ns.cloudflare.com, oaklyn.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-06-17 Expires: 2027-06-17 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-09-15 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: bef4a896b67397830d1e6df3dbf4ad1c8eab162509d5bc372d0274cc8e52fc1c ## 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: 2026-06-17 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-20 09:48:59 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-20 08:38:08 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-29 09:17:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-21 12:19:18 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ee3ff-e67e-7752-bcac-4825c092108a/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/a6b51031-cfc6-4f70-a9c6-dd5a71cb65b0 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/firelight-foundation.app crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.firelight-foundation.app Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=firelight-foundation.app AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/firelight-foundation.app URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/firelight-foundation.app/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-23 10:18:22 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This report analyzes the domain firelight-foundation.app, which is currently offline. The site's name suggests an impersonation of a legitimate foundation or philanthropic entity. The threat posed is likely a phishing or advance-fee fraud scheme, where victims are deceived into providing personal information or making payments under false pretenses. Technical analysis reveals the domain was flagged by 7 out of 95 VirusTotal vendors, including alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, CyRadar, Fortinet, and G-Data. It appears on 3 blocklists. The domain was created on 2026-06-17 via registrar NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. It resolves to IP address 172.67.163.202 in the United States, hosted by AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. The SSL certificate was issued by Google Trust Services / WE1. Nameservers are keaton.ns.cloudflare.com and oaklyn.ns.cloudflare.com. The domain is currently DOWN/OFFLINE. GridinSoft trust rating is 0/100, and the DOM risk score is 95, indicating a high threat level. Despite being offline, the domain's registration details and low trust score suggest malicious intent, and it should be blocked and monitored for future activity. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 7/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260620-6ED6E4 TLS cert SHA-256: bef4a896b67397830d1e6df3dbf4ad1c8eab162509d5bc372d0274cc8e52fc1c ## 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/firelight-foundation.app/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=firelight-foundation.app 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.
