# PhishDestroy threat dossier — mpixel.info ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-16 16:10:57 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/mpixel.info/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 98/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Crypto Scam ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 2/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Ermes, Fortinet Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.97.3 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. 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. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-real https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-verdict Nameservers: alaric.ns.cloudflare.com, magali.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-07-05 Expires: 2027-07-05 Page title: Million Pixel Wall Allocation — Claim Live HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-10-03 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 28fcffd76d84b44dd485f0db11bd71402a10702c1a79de188c273d48cbe20956 ## 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: 2026-07-05 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-08 20:26:59 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-16 16:20:47 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-09 00:17:16 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f42fa-830c-746e-99f0-4384b5386ef8/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/mpixel.info crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.mpixel.info Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=mpixel.info AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/mpixel.info URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/mpixel.info/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-13 00:16:25 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, mpixel.info, is flagged as a high-risk crypto scam following detection on July 12, 2026. Analysis indicates the site presents itself under the title 'Million Pixel Wall Allocation — Claim Live,' a known pattern associated with fraudulent cryptocurrency schemes. The domain was registered on July 5, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, and remains active as of the report date. Infrastructure analysis reveals Cloudflare-hosted nameservers (alaric.ns.cloudflare.com, magali.ns.cloudflare.com) and resolution to IP 188.114.97.3, located in Canada under Cloudflare, Inc. The site employs HSTS, Cloudflare Browser Insights, and HTTP/3, suggesting an attempt to appear legitimate while leveraging Cloudflare’s infrastructure to obscure origin details. Security vendor detection is limited, with only 2 of 91 engines on VirusTotal flagging the domain. It appears on one security blocklist and is currently blocked by PhishDestroy. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services (WE1), a common choice for malicious domains due to its free availability. The HTTP status returns 200, confirming the site is accessible. No specific brand impersonation or phishing kit is identified in available data, though the page title aligns with crypto-related scams. Defenders should treat this domain as active and high-risk. Recommended actions include blocking the domain and IP at perimeter security controls, monitoring for connections to 188.114.97.3, and investigating any internal systems that have interacted with it. Given the recent registration and Cloudflare obfuscation, further analysis of related domains or IPs may reveal additional threats. No evidence suggests this is part of a larger campaign, but the low detection rate and use of Cloudflare warrant heightened scrutiny. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 3da9667c6b442ae5b676c1c697c6131d TLS cert SHA-256: 28fcffd76d84b44dd485f0db11bd71402a10702c1a79de188c273d48cbe20956 ## 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/mpixel.info/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=mpixel.info 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.
