No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-02-19 19:47:07 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-23 20:46:22 UTC (STALE — 16 days ago, re-verify) Current status: ACTIVE / observable 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/019c76cb-f631-702f-b7b9-5f4be61b4fa8/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/nixvan.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.nixvan.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=nixvan.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/nixvan.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/nixvan.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-19 01:24:51 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy has identified nixvan.com as a high-risk phishing domain masquerading as "Nixvan: Elon Musk’s Official Crypto Casino Powered by Blockchain." This deceptive title attempts to lure users into fraudulent cryptocurrency activities by leveraging the celebrity status of Elon Musk. Such tactics are commonly employed to exploit unsuspecting victims with promises of lucrative blockchain-based gambling opportunities. Technical analysis reveals that nixvan.com was registered through Global Domain Group LLC on February 21, 2026, and resolved to the IP address 172.67.187.218. The domain was flagged by 14 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors and appears on at least one notable security blocklist, underscoring the consensus on its malicious intent. Its infrastructure aligns with patterns commonly found in phishing campaigns that target cryptocurrency users by mimicking legitimate brand identities and technologies. Currently, nixvan.com has been taken offline to mitigate ongoing risks, preventing further user exposure to potential theft or fraud. PhishDestroy recommends that users remain vigilant against similar phishing schemes, avoid interacting with suspicious crypto casino platforms, and verify domain authenticity before engaging in any online financial transactions. Security teams are advised to continue blocking access to this domain and update phishing filters accordingly to protect end users. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon SHA-256: c6a528a6786d0b1ba3a6800ec62ad36b4ae4a8e91ca0e11915c8d45726447707 TLS cert SHA-256: bbce55fc1e6999e17225c3f0dd8e4c47dd716a569ac9fccd1c7d627ffdae7d6f ## 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/nixvan.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=nixvan.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.
