# PhishDestroy threat dossier — flare.nodevium.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-04 16:28:34 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/flare.nodevium.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Credential Phishing ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 13/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ChainPatrol, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Chong Lua Dao, CRDF, CyRadar, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Lionic, SOCRadar, Sophos Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.96.3 (US, San Francisco) Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. 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: celeste.ns.cloudflare.com, junade.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-05-25 Expires: 2027-05-25 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E7 Expires: 2026-08-23 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: fa97cf52d95ddfeb51927773fcb45ad05f417c2125747e9fa26597827b43b523 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - nodevium.com ## 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: 2026-05-25 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-27 19:49:25 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-05-27 19:48:39 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-04 16:20:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-13 09:48:08 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e6a53-65b5-77cb-9a87-92f794d6f215/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/flare.nodevium.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.flare.nodevium.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=flare.nodevium.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/flare.nodevium.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/flare.nodevium.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 04:38:48 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, flare.nodevium.com, operates as a credential harvesting phishing site designed to deceive users into submitting sensitive login credentials. The site presents fraudulent login interfaces that closely resemble legitimate services, capturing usernames, passwords, and potentially multi-factor authentication codes. Such stolen credentials are commonly exploited for unauthorized account access, financial fraud, or further targeted phishing campaigns against contacts of compromised users. Analysis indicates this domain was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED on May 25, 2026, an unusually future-dated creation that suggests potential domain spoofing or registry manipulation. VirusTotal detection metrics show 13 out of 95 security vendors flagging the domain as malicious, with a Gridinsoft trust score of 0/100. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3 and appears on one security blocklist, while also being actively blocked by enterprise phishing prevention systems. If you visited flare.nodevium.com or entered credentials on a site resembling this domain, immediate action is required. First, reset passwords for all accounts accessed from the same device or network, prioritizing email, financial, and work-related services. Enable multi-factor authentication where available, using app-based or hardware tokens rather than SMS. Scan the device used to visit the site with updated antivirus software to detect potential malware or keyloggers. Monitor accounts for unauthorized activity, including login attempts, password changes, or unfamiliar transactions. Report the incident to your organization's security team if the device was used for work purposes, and consider notifying relevant financial institutions if banking details were exposed. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 13/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71 TLS cert SHA-256: fa97cf52d95ddfeb51927773fcb45ad05f417c2125747e9fa26597827b43b523 ## 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/flare.nodevium.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=flare.nodevium.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
