# PhishDestroy threat dossier — info-aave.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-05 23:46:18 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/info-aave.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 82/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Targeted brand: Aave ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 0/92 security vendors flagged this domain AlienVault OTX: 27 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 2 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- 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: ["jacqueline.ns.cloudflare.com", "melnicoff.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-05-09 ## 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: 2026-05-09 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-09 03:30:06 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-06 00:20:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-09 03:13:41 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-18 17:01:36 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The risk level of info-aave.com is currently under investigation due to its brand impersonation threat type, which poses a significant risk to users who may unknowingly interact with the domain. PhishDestroy identifies that info-aave.com was created on May 09, 2026, and has been found in 27 threat intelligence pulses, with 0/95 detections on VirusTotal, indicating that it has not been flagged by most security vendors yet, and is registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, while also appearing on 4 security blocklists, which raises concerns about its legitimacy. To mitigate the risks associated with brand impersonation, users should exercise extreme caution when interacting with info-aave.com, and verify the authenticity of the domain on PhishDestroy, as this domain was taken offline, but may be revived or have similar counterparts, and users should always be vigilant when dealing with online platforms that impersonate well-known brands like Aave, by checking the URL for spelling mistakes, and never providing sensitive information on unverified websites ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 11e815fcc46522874043fec1a1423f31 ## 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 (operator 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/info-aave.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=info-aave.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
