Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. 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.

No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-04-02 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-02 17:24:12 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-04-02 14:28:13 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-23 13:40:19 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-23 04:08:59 UTC Current status: ACTIVE — cloaked behind HTTP 666 to evade scanners Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019d4e91-d20c-74e3-81da-97f55c81b532/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/0ed3149e-a43a-4972-a736-198a0de56671 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/moonbirb.live crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.moonbirb.live Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=moonbirb.live AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/moonbirb.live URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/moonbirb.live/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-02 17:25:35 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] moonbirb.live poses a significant threat as a crypto drainer site designed to steal digital assets from unsuspecting users. It likely employs fake login prompts or wallet connection requests to illicitly access cryptocurrency accounts. This tactic puts users’ funds at immediate risk of theft once they interact with the domain. PhishDestroy’s analysis found moonbirb.live listed on 2 security blocklists and flagged by 3 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, confirming its malicious nature. The domain was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED on March 29, 2026, and resolves to IP address 104.21.41.53. It uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate to appear legitimate. Notably, the site is actively blocked by MetaMask and SEAL, reflecting its recognized danger within the crypto security ecosystem. Users who have visited moonbirb.live should immediately cease any wallet interactions and revoke any permissions granted to the site through their crypto wallets or browser extensions. It is critical to scan devices for malware and change all related credentials. Verification of domain safety should be done on PhishDestroy to avoid further exposure to potential crypto theft or fraud. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260402-CA241B Favicon MD5: 2d9f27db1357cbd097e53a0e50631459 ## 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/moonbirb.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=moonbirb.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.
