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: 2026-05-10 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-18 17:40:24 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-06-29 08:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-20 00:02:52 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019edb63-1eae-7713-bac4-6c254e359311/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/governance-flare.finance crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.governance-flare.finance Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=governance-flare.finance AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/governance-flare.finance URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/governance-flare.finance/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 14:26:42 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, governance-flare.finance, is identified as an active phishing site specifically designed to execute cryptocurrency wallet-draining attacks. Analysis indicates the domain impersonates Flare Network governance portals to deceive users into connecting their wallets, subsequently siphoning digital assets. The site remains operational as of the latest verification, posing an immediate threat to users engaging with decentralized finance platforms. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED on May 10, 2026, an unusual future date suggesting potential registration data manipulation. It resolves to IP address 104.21.21.107, hosted on Cloudflare's network (AS13335) in the United States. The domain appears on three security blocklists and is flagged by 6 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, including detection as generic_phishing. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt (serial number E7), providing encrypted connections that may lend false legitimacy to the malicious site. Current trust scores and detection counts indicate a high-risk classification. The domain remains active and continues to resolve, requiring immediate mitigation measures. Users are advised to block the domain and associated IP address at the network level. Cryptocurrency wallet providers should integrate the domain into their real-time phishing detection systems. Network administrators should monitor for connections to 104.21.21.107 and the domain governance-flare.finance, particularly within decentralized application traffic. Verification of wallet connection prompts against official Flare Network domains is strongly recommended to prevent asset compromise. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: dc270172d1648eb90a7ac9e496aaa7ec TLS cert SHA-256: d1189bd1dffe862e0ff53cfb2e8327e1369ed906ab380c553672b314faea7d4b ## 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/governance-flare.finance/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=governance-flare.finance 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.
