No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-07-15 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-20 18:22:12 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-07-20 17:01:08 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-23 20:20:21 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f8054-50f4-729d-8e17-86dcb69dcca2/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/c8255cb1-2460-410d-bc7e-7afb2589ca27 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/flarefdn-launch.live crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.flarefdn-launch.live Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=flarefdn-launch.live AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/flarefdn-launch.live URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/flarefdn-launch.live/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-20 18:23:26 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] flarefdn-launch.live: Confirmed Phishing Site Analysis of flarefdn-launch.live shows that the domain was registered on July 15 2026 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. The authoritative nameservers are kipp.ns.cloudflare.com and nola.ns.cloudflare.com, indicating Cloudflare DNS services. DNS resolution points to the IP address 172.67.151.202, an address commonly associated with Cloudflare's edge network, which masks the true hosting location and complicates attribution. The domain appears on three independent blocklists, specifically PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL, each of which has flagged the zone as malicious. VirusTotal’s recent scan recorded eight detections out of ninety‑five participating engines, reinforcing the suspicion that the site is being used for malicious purposes. The threat type is classified as generic phishing, and the risk level is marked high; the status remains active as of the report date, July 20 2026. The available evidence confirms that the infrastructure is intentionally obscured behind Cloudflare, a common tactic for phishing operators seeking rapid deployment and resilience against takedown attempts. While the IP belongs to a shared CDN, the combination of recent registration, multiple blocklist listings, and multi‑engine detections suggests an active campaign rather than a benign test site. No public page title, SSL certificate details, or HTTP response codes have been disclosed, leaving the exact content and victim‑targeting mechanisms unverified. Defenders should block flarefdn-launch.live at network perimeter and update URL filtering policies to include the three listed blocklists. Security operations teams are advised to monitor DNS queries for the domain and its associated Cloudflare nameservers, and to alert users of potential phishing attempts that may reference the domain. Incident response procedures should incorporate the domain’s identifiers for forensic correlation, and any observed traffic should be captured for further analysis. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260720-9FCA66 Favicon MD5: dc270172d1648eb90a7ac9e496aaa7ec TLS cert SHA-256: 3ad76574a3d4cccb30f79204df81239ce0e21ac0176d4d9f635f5dfafd3bf0ab ## 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/flarefdn-launch.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=flarefdn-launch.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.
