Hosting org: 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: dane.ns.cloudflare.com, jewel.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-05-05 Page title: goldenaustraliaai-app.com | 522: Connection timed out HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E8 Expires: 2026-08-03 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 2377e6a7ae98e6926d36280fce0f7ec85c14a60e441d54de0c2f658a9792b613 ## 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: 2026-05-05 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-09 10:16:17 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-05-09 07:17:20 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-05-11 12:55:44 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-09 15:28:07 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e0b96-3487-74d7-b3e5-3d598d653691/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/308dd576-d940-4aef-aa0d-52c636bd591f Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/goldenaustraliaai-app.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.goldenaustraliaai-app.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=goldenaustraliaai-app.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/goldenaustraliaai-app.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/goldenaustraliaai-app.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-09 10:17:15 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies an active phishing campaign tied to the domain goldenaustraliaai-app.com that masquerades as a legitimate AI tool to harvest user credentials and install malware. The site leverages social-engineering tactics, presenting itself as an innovative Australian AI application to lure victims into entering personal information or downloading malicious payloads. Threat actors registered the domain on May 05, 2026 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and hosted it on IP 172.67.179.150, which is associated with known malicious activity. Despite using a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate to appear trustworthy, only 1 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal detected this domain as malicious at the time of analysis, underscoring the stealth and evasiveness of this campaign. This domain represents an elevated phishing threat due to its recent registration, low detection rate, and use of trusted infrastructure. The combination of a newly created domain (May 05, 2026), obscure registrar tied to high-risk registrations, and hosting on a shared IP with a history of abuse increases the risk of successful compromise. The low VirusTotal detection score of 1/95 indicates that most endpoint protections have not yet flagged this domain, making it particularly dangerous for users relying on signature-based defenses. The SSL certificate further enhances credibility, tricking users into believing the site is legitimate. This tactic is commonly used in AI-themed lure campaigns to distribute infostealers or ransomware under the guise of innovative software. Users who visited goldenaustraliaai-app.com or entered any information should immediately change passwords on all accounts, especially email and financial services, as credentials may have been harvested. Enable multi-factor authentication (MFA) across all critical accounts to prevent unauthorized access. Run a full antivirus scan using updated endpoint protection to detect and remove any malware that may have been silently installed. Report the domain to your IT security team or platform abuse channels to help block further propagation. Avoid downloading any software or files from this domain, as it may contain trojans or ransomware. Remain vigilant for follow-on phishing emails or SMS messages that may use the stolen data for further exploitation. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260509-F7FF95 Favicon MD5: 51ef3b344a3491ba956860bebe8eaef0 TLS cert SHA-256: 2377e6a7ae98e6926d36280fce0f7ec85c14a60e441d54de0c2f658a9792b613 ## 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/goldenaustraliaai-app.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=goldenaustraliaai-app.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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
