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: ["audrey.ns.cloudflare.com", "augustus.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-02-21 Page title: www.www.manta-network-v2.com ## 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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-26 23:24:14 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-04-12 19:51:05 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019a0e02-dd61-71d9-8c08-f049d411d85e/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/manta-network-v2.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.manta-network-v2.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=manta-network-v2.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/manta-network-v2.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/manta-network-v2.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-24 00:21:49 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies manta-network-v2.com as a phishing domain that was registered recently and flagged on one security blocklist. Although its overall risk level is low and it is currently offline, the domain was still used to deceive users by mimicking legitimate services. Such sites can trick users into revealing sensitive information, leading to potential identity theft or financial loss. This phishing attempt worked by presenting a misleading page titled "www.www.manta-network-v2.com," likely designed to confuse users into thinking it was a trustworthy site. By impersonating a legitimate network or service, the attackers aimed to collect login credentials or other private data. The domain was registered through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited and detected by 2 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors before being taken down. If you have visited manta-network-v2.com, it is crucial to avoid entering any personal or financial information. Run a full antivirus scan on your device and change passwords for any accounts you accessed around the same time. Stay vigilant for suspicious emails or messages referencing this domain, and report any phishing attempts to your email provider or IT security team. Always verify website URLs carefully to protect your data. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: b54555eca884f030d747113097f2d449 ## 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/manta-network-v2.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=manta-network-v2.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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
