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: bonnie.ns.cloudflare.com, junade.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-06-24 Expires: 2027-06-24 ## 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: 2026-06-24 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-24 23:58:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-24 22:00:18 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-02 12:20:39 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-25 03:04:03 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019efba3-8143-7584-9673-32bb758dc708/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/088c8909-24bb-4cc9-8b07-9c07c7bb7847 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/flarefoundation-reward.xyz crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.flarefoundation-reward.xyz Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=flarefoundation-reward.xyz AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/flarefoundation-reward.xyz URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/flarefoundation-reward.xyz/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 00:00:07 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, flarefoundation-reward.xyz, mimics legitimate reward programs to deceive users into connecting cryptocurrency wallets and draining assets. The site presents itself as an official Flare Foundation rewards portal, luring visitors with false promises of token distributions. Analysis indicates the infrastructure is designed to exploit user trust in well-known blockchain projects, particularly those involving reward mechanisms. Analysis indicates this domain is a generic phishing site registered on June 24, 2026, with zero detections on VirusTotal as of the latest scan. The domain resolves to IP address 104.21.35.124, which has no historical reputation tied to legitimate reward distribution services. The registrar, NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, has been observed facilitating domains with similar fraudulent patterns in past incident reports. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was likely created for short-lived campaigns targeting cryptocurrency users expecting reward payouts. If you visited this site, disconnect any connected wallets immediately and revoke any unauthorized approvals. Do not enter credentials, seed phrases, or wallet connection requests on this domain. Report the domain to your security team and block it at the network level. Monitor wallet transactions for unauthorized transfers and consider rotating private keys if exposure is suspected. Ensure endpoint detection measures are updated to flag this domain based on its current reputation status. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260624-961E7C ## 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/flarefoundation-reward.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=flarefoundation-reward.xyz 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.
