Hosting org: AS13335 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.

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: 2026-07-06 14:15:21 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-06 18:20:33 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-06 18:16:50 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f3759-3f59-7360-a3d5-0540e3db5fce/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/mtmask.icu crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.mtmask.icu Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=mtmask.icu AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/mtmask.icu URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/mtmask.icu/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-06 15:01:16 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain mtmask.icu has been categorized as a high-risk generic phishing threat. This classification stems from the domain's intent to impersonate a legitimate service, specifically MetaMask, which is aimed at deceiving users into providing sensitive information. Technical analysis reveals that mtmask.icu resolves to the IP address 104.21.34.52. The domain was created on July 05, 2026, and is registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. A review of VirusTotal indicates that 15 out of 95 security vendors currently flag this domain, reflecting its recognition as a potential threat. The ongoing active status of the domain suggests that it remains operational and capable of carrying out phishing attempts. To mitigate risks associated with mtmask.icu, users are advised to employ strict scrutiny of URLs before entering sensitive information. It is essential to utilize security solutions that include real-time threat detection and domain reputation checks. Organizations should educate users about identifying phishing attempts, including recognizing suspicious domain names and verifying the authenticity of communications before engaging with links. Continuous monitoring of threat intelligence feeds can aid in recognizing newly registered phishing domains and blocking access to them. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: b8a0bf372c762e966cc99ede8682bc71 TLS cert SHA-256: 506630194c26b947b5cd88060430a3b1492aa2904280ea23c0c2bcc2064f81b9 ## 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/mtmask.icu/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=mtmask.icu 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.
