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: 2025-11-28 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2025-11-28 18:45:26 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-05-24 00:24:52 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-29 00:02:24 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019acbc8-7ce1-7206-943f-5c8445436f9a/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/hydr.live crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.hydr.live Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=hydr.live AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/hydr.live URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/hydr.live/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-03 03:08:31 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies hydr.live as a high-risk crypto drainer domain designed to exploit Wallet Connect vulnerabilities to steal cryptocurrency wallets. The site masqueraded as a drops bot for decentralized exchange (DEX) trading, aiming to lure users into compromising their digital assets. This domain facilitated unauthorized access, draining victims’ wallets via malicious scripts embedded in the platform. The domain hydr.live was registered on November 28, 2025, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and resolved to IP address 91.92.242.155. Despite currently being taken offline, the domain appeared on four security blocklists and was flagged by 15 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, underscoring its malicious nature. This infrastructure indicates a coordinated effort to distribute a Wallet Connect abuse drainer kit targeting cryptocurrency users. Users are strongly advised to avoid visiting hydr.live or interacting with any associated platforms claiming to offer automated DEX trading bots. If wallet credentials or private keys were entered, immediate steps should include revoking wallet permissions, transferring funds to a secure wallet, and enabling multi-factor authentication. Continuous vigilance is recommended, including using trusted sources for crypto tools and verifying domain legitimacy before engagement. ## 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/hydr.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=hydr.live 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.
