Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Is firelightfi-participatel.live a phishing site? Analysis indicates that firelightfi-participatel.live was registered on July 15, 2026 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and is currently active. The domain resolves to the IP address 188.114.97.3 and uses Cloudflare authoritative nameservers kipp.ns.cloudflare.com and nola.ns.cloudflare.com. Threat intelligence flags the domain as a generic phishing site; it appears on three security blocklists and is explicitly blocked by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. VirusTotal scans show that four of ninety‑five AV engines flagged the domain, confirming malicious behavior despite a limited detection count. No additional public indicators such as SSL certificate details, HTTP response codes, or page titles have been released, leaving the exact phishing payload unknown. Defenders should prioritize immediate containment by adding the domain to network deny lists and updating web filtering rules to block any resolution to 188.114.97.3. Continuous monitoring of the associated Cloudflare nameservers is advisable, as the infrastructure could be leveraged for rapid re‑hosting. Given the recent creation date and active status, threat actors may be exploiting the domain in targeted campaigns; therefore, security teams should also watch for related indicators of compromise in email traffic and endpoint logs. The presence on multiple blocklists and the partial VirusTotal detections underscore a high risk profile, warranting proactive remediation.

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/firelightfi-participatel.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=firelightfi-participatel.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.
