No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-07-10 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-13 23:02:10 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-14 04:20:38 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f5d48-696e-72f7-9c2a-9e096618a3b1/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/flarenetworks-distribution.live crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.flarenetworks-distribution.live Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=flarenetworks-distribution.live AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/flarenetworks-distribution.live URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/flarenetworks-distribution.live/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-13 23:21:09 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Analysis indicates that the domain flarenetworks-distribution.live was registered on July 10, 2026 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and is currently resolving to the IP address 188.114.97.3. The domain is delegated to Cloudflare nameservers kipp.ns.cloudflare.com and nola.ns.cloudflare.com, suggesting the use of a reputable DNS provider to mask the true hosting location. The short registration window and immediate activation align with typical patterns observed in infrastructure supporting credential‑stealing campaigns. No public content has been captured, and no additional intelligence such as page titles, targeted brands, or payload identifiers is available, leaving the exact phishing vector undefined. The presence of an active A record and cloud‑based DNS indicates that the site is reachable and could be used to host malicious login pages or to redirect victims to credential‑harvesting endpoints. Defenders should block or monitor DNS resolutions to 188.114.97.3 and consider adding the domain to URL filtering or sinkhole lists. Network telemetry should be examined for outbound connections to this IP, and any user‑initiated HTTP(S) requests to the domain should be logged and investigated. Continued observation is recommended to capture the site’s content and determine the specific brand or service being spoofed, which will inform more precise mitigation steps. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 52abd2438082bf98a4f538c20d0655c40d18be19ec7d796601be4e1da41e5afc ## 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/flarenetworks-distribution.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=flarenetworks-distribution.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.
