“mickey.finance”
Evidence Summary
Analysis of the domain mickey.finance indicates it is operating as a high-risk phishing site, currently active as of July 12, 2026. The domain was registered on February 21, 2026, through NameCheap, Inc., and resolves to the IP address 162.255.119.165, hosted by Web-hosting.com in the United States. Infrastructure review shows the domain uses nameservers dns1.registrar-servers.com and dns2.registrar-servers.com, a common configuration for domains registered via NameCheap. The site returns an HTTP 302 redirect status, suggesting it may be forwarding visitors to another location, though the destination is not yet confirmed in available data. Security vendors have begun flagging mickey.finance, with one out of 95 engines on VirusTotal detecting it as malicious. The domain appears on two security blocklists, including PhishDestroy and ScamSniffer, and has been assigned a trust score of 0 out of 100 by Gridinsoft. The absence of an SSL certificate further increases risk, as it exposes any transmitted data to interception. The page title, mickey.finance, does not clearly indicate a specific brand or service being impersonated, leaving the exact nature of the scam uncertain. However, the domain name and structure suggest it may be targeting users in the financial or cryptocurrency sectors. Defenders should treat this domain as a confirmed phishing threat. Network-level blocking is recommended for the domain and its resolved IP address. Security teams should monitor for connections to 162.255.119.165 and review logs for any redirects originating from mickey.finance. Given the 302 status, additional investigation is needed to identify the final landing page and any associated infrastructure. Organizations should also assess whether internal users have interacted with this domain and conduct awareness training if exposure is detected. The domain remains active, and further analysis may reveal additional indicators or threat patterns.
