Network Security Intelligence Registrar context
Registrar contextNiceNIC
Stored registration data identifies NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED (IANA 3765) as the registrar. PhishDestroy maintains separate NiceNIC abuse-report research; registrar association is contextual and is not an independent detection for this domain.
PhishDestroy listed governance-pendle.com on its internal blocklist after first seeing the domain on 2026-10-20. No page title or content was captured, so the site’s claimed purpose is unknown. The listing reflects the presence of external detections rather than observed wrongdoing.
How the scam works
Because the domain has not been assigned a specific scam category, the available detections do not point to a particular mechanism such as credential harvesting or wallet draining. In general, domains that appear on multiple security blocklists may be used to lure users into unsafe interactions, but the exact tactic for this site cannot be determined from the current evidence.
Evidence
VirusTotal reported five detections from 92 scanning engines, with alerts from alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet and Webroot; the results were retrieved on 2026-10-20 and analyzed on 2026-10-17. Google Safe Browsing marked the URL as safe as of 2026-10-20. External blocklists MetaMask, ScamSniffer and SEAL each flagged the domain on 2026-10-20, and PhishDestroy’s internal list also includes it on that date. OTX listed zero pulses for the domain as of 2026-10-20.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-10-16 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, four days before PhishDestroy’s first sighting. DNS resolution recorded the IP address 104.21.21.138, which is the only network detail available.
What to do
Do not enter credentials or personal information on the site; if you have already done so, change any affected passwords immediately. Monitor accounts for unexpected activity and consider blocking the domain at the network perimeter. Security teams should add the exact domain to blocklists and review logs for any connections to the recorded IP address.
No. PhishDestroy classifies governance-pendle.com as a Pendle impersonation page (risk: critical, 95/100); it was first detected on 2026-10-20. VirusTotal: 5/92 engines flag it. Listed on Spamhaus DBL. Treat the site as unsafe.
Is governance-pendle.com safe to connect a wallet?
No. Do not connect a wallet, sign messages or approve tokens on governance-pendle.com. Phishing sites ask for approvals (approve, setApprovalForAll, Permit2) that let the operator move your assets, and a confirmed transaction cannot be reversed.
What should I do if I used governance-pendle.com?
Change every password you entered there and turn on two-factor authentication. If you connected a wallet or signed something, revoke the approvals and move the remaining funds to a new wallet; never share your seed phrase. Step-by-step help: emergency guide.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.

After a phishing incident
Recommendations & Advice for Victims
Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.
What should I do immediately?
Urgent
Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.
Change all passwords — email, exchange accounts, anything that shares the same password
Enable 2FA using an authenticator app (not SMS). Disable SMS-based recovery
Freeze cards if you entered banking details on the phishing site
What information should I collect for my report?
FBI guidelines
Keep original emails, receipts, messages and screenshots in a secure place. A factual timeline helps the receiving authority understand what happened. IC3 evidence guidance ↗
Payment records — if you paid, save the receipt, amount, date, payment provider and recipient details.
Exact dates & times — of each transaction and first contact with scammer
Screenshots — scam website, chat messages, emails, wallet transactions, social media
All URLs & domains used by the scammer (including governance-pendle.com)
Communications — emails, texts, phone numbers, usernames the scammer used
Even if you don't have all details — file a report anyway. Partial information still helps investigations.
Where should I report the scam?
FBI IC3 — Internet Crime Complaint Center (US federal reporting)
Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
Local police — creates an official record, even if they can't act immediately
A report is not a guarantee of recovery or investigation, but prompt, accurate transaction data can help authorities and service providers trace the incident.
How do phishing scams typically work?
Fake websites — pixel-perfect clones of legitimate sites with slightly altered domains
Pig butchering — trust built over weeks via Telegram/WhatsApp/dating apps, then money stolen
Recovery scams — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
AI-powered scams — deepfakes, automated phishing, and AI-generated sites making fraud harder to detect
How can I protect myself in the future?
Bookmark official sites — never click links from emails, DMs, or ads
Verify domains — check on PhishDestroy before interacting. Check HTTPS, spelling, domain age
"Too good to be true" = scam — guaranteed returns, celebrity endorsements, urgent deadlines
