Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain governance-flarenetworks.xyz is currently classified as a high-risk generic phishing site. Analysis suggests an attempt to impersonate the Flare Networks brand, likely targeting users in the cryptocurrency sector. There is no evidence of a specific drainer kit in use; however, the domain's nomenclature and infrastructure are consistent with phishing campaigns designed to harvest user credentials or sensitive information. Technical indicators confirm the domain's malicious intent: VirusTotal reports that 4 out of 95 security vendors have flagged governance-flarenetworks.xyz as malicious. The domain was registered on June 22, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. It currently resolves to the IPv4 address 104.21.79.40. The domain does not employ an SSL certificate, increasing the risk to users. It is listed on 3 separate security blocklists. As of this report, the domain is still active and has not been taken down. There is no information regarding its status on Google Safe Browsing. Given its continued operation and confirmed blocklist presence, governance-flarenetworks.xyz remains a significant threat. It is advised to block all traffic to the associated IP and domain at the network perimeter. Users should be instructed to avoid interacting with links or emails referencing this domain. Continued monitoring for related infrastructure and rapid response to any observed phishing attempts are recommended to mitigate ongoing risk. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260628-2C60C1 Favicon MD5: b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71 ## 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-flarenetworks.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=governance-flarenetworks.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.
