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.

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: 2026-05-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-29 13:56:13 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-05-29 11:12:11 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-04 12:20:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-06 17:29:35 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e735c-9dd4-7795-901a-7218a1996e34/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/60fceec4-793a-41dc-8bfe-b637d1bcb9d3 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/fudthepug.info crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.fudthepug.info Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=fudthepug.info AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/fudthepug.info URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/fudthepug.info/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 04:20:58 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, fudthepug.info, is identified as a crypto drainer phishing site designed to deceive users into connecting cryptocurrency wallets under the pretense of a "FUD Allocation Live" event. The site employs social engineering tactics to trick victims into authorizing malicious transactions, resulting in the unauthorized drainage of digital assets from connected wallets. The use of fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD) terminology in the page title suggests an attempt to exploit market volatility narratives, a common tactic in crypto-focused phishing campaigns. Analysis indicates the domain was registered on May 21, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk domains. The domain resolves to the IP address 104.21.87.210 and is protected by Cloudflare, which obscures backend infrastructure and complicates takedown efforts. Security vendors on VirusTotal flagged the domain at a rate of 14/95, while it appears on four independent security blocklists. Detected technologies include HSTS, Cloudflare Browser Insights, and HTTP/3, which may enhance the site's perceived legitimacy while facilitating malicious activity. Users who visited fudthepug.info or interacted with its content should immediately revoke any wallet authorizations granted to unknown or suspicious contracts. It is critical to audit all connected wallet permissions using a trusted blockchain explorer and monitor transaction histories for unauthorized activity. If assets were compromised, victims should report the incident to relevant cryptocurrency platforms and law enforcement agencies. Additionally, affected users should scan their devices for malware, as crypto drainer campaigns often deploy secondary payloads to maintain persistence or harvest additional credentials. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260529-F29961 Favicon MD5: 96a4211680853b630ad164797b2113fe TLS cert SHA-256: d66382c7ade49047408c3c3eadf41e0e081018b9d6091d7b2cbafa8485203300 ## 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/fudthepug.info/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=fudthepug.info 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.
