# PhishDestroy threat dossier — nova-dax.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-21 02:49:34 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/nova-dax.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 78/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 2/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Gridinsoft, SOCRadar URLQuery: 3 detections AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.21.42.164 (US, San Francisco) Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: MAT BAO CORPORATION Nameservers: elaine.ns.cloudflare.com, khalid.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2025-11-26 Expires: 2026-11-26 HTTP response: 530 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-08-21 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: d18ad5988642a5dfb62dc8c48bb07031da2d61e1460dae407acc6e62d38ef171 ## 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: 2025-11-26 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-16 14:34:06 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-17 16:36:43 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-21 04:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-18 00:23:39 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ed06b-eccb-72e9-babd-897b3ac71d60/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/0ef28972-2e79-483b-86f2-4b162a052d96 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/nova-dax.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.nova-dax.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=nova-dax.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/nova-dax.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/nova-dax.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-18 16:35:34 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies nova-dax.com as a crypto drainer domain, posing a threat to users' cryptocurrency assets, with no specific brand impersonation or drainer kit detected. The domain nova-dax.com has a VirusTotal score of 2/95, was registered through MAT BAO CORPORATION, resolves to IP 104.21.42.164, and was created on November 26, 2025, with a Google Trust Services SSL certificate, and is currently found on 1 security blocklist, indicating a potential threat. The domain nova-dax.com is currently offline, but PhishDestroy warns that the risk level remains elevated, and users should exercise caution when encountering similar domains, as the threat of crypto drainers and credential theft persists, and it is essential to take necessary safety precautions to protect sensitive information and assets. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260617-0334C0 Favicon MD5: ef5e7d25d2170853367f4ee9334725c8 TLS cert SHA-256: d18ad5988642a5dfb62dc8c48bb07031da2d61e1460dae407acc6e62d38ef171 ## 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/nova-dax.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=nova-dax.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.
