Registrar contextNiceNIC
Stored registration data identifies NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED (IANA 3765) as the registrar. PhishDestroy maintains separate NiceNIC abuse-report research; registrar association is contextual and is not an independent detection for this domain.
PhishDestroy’s automated assessment labels paid-creatorfees.com as a crypto wallet drainer. The recorded page title is “$PAID Holder Crates · PAID”. PhishDestroy first observed the domain on 2026-10-22 and recorded an HTTP 200 response on that date.
How the scam works
Crypto drainer sites typically entice users to connect a Web3 wallet and then request token transfers or contract approvals, which can be used to move any assets the wallet holds. This generic risk applies to the domain regardless of any specific behavior observed on the page.
Evidence
VirusTotal scanned the domain on 2026-10-22 and reported five malicious detections from Emsisoft, Fortinet, Netcraft, Seclookup and Webroot out of 92 engines. Google Safe Browsing checked on the same date and did not flag the site. External blocklists MetaMask and SEAL listed the domain, and Spamhaus DBL marked it as spam on 2026-10-22. OTX recorded four pulses referencing the domain on 2026-10-22. Cloudflare Radar flagged the URL as phishing, and URLScan’s engine score was 96 with a malicious tag, though its overall verdict was not malicious, both on 2026-10-22. PhishDestroy’s internal blocklist also contains the domain as of 2026-10-22.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-10-20 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. Hosting is provided by Cloudflare, with recorded IP addresses 172.67.168.64 and 104.21.26.87 (and corresponding IPv6 addresses). The TLS certificate, issued by Let’s Encrypt, is valid from 2026-10-20 to 2027-01-18 and covers *.paid-creatorfees.com and paid-creatorfees.com.
What to do
Users should avoid connecting any cryptocurrency wallet to paid-creatorfees.com; if a wallet was already connected, revoke any approvals and, if private keys or seed phrases were entered, create a new secure wallet and transfer remaining assets. Defenders should add the exact domain to blocklists, monitor DNS queries for it, and review access logs for any connections to the recorded IPs. Visiting the site alone does not prove compromise, but the listed indicators merit precautionary action.

Is paid-creatorfees.com safe to connect a wallet?
No. Do not connect a wallet, sign messages or approve tokens on paid-creatorfees.com. Phishing sites ask for approvals (approve, setApprovalForAll, Permit2) that let the operator move your assets, and a confirmed transaction cannot be reversed.
What should I do if I used paid-creatorfees.com?
Change every password you entered there and turn on two-factor authentication. If you connected a wallet or signed something, revoke the approvals and move the remaining funds to a new wallet; never share your seed phrase. Step-by-step help: emergency guide.

After a phishing incident
Recommendations & Advice for Victims
Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.
What should I do immediately?
Urgent
Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.
Change all passwords — email, exchange accounts, anything that shares the same password
Enable 2FA using an authenticator app (not SMS). Disable SMS-based recovery
Freeze cards if you entered banking details on the phishing site
What information should I collect for my report?
FBI guidelines
Keep original emails, receipts, messages and screenshots in a secure place. A factual timeline helps the receiving authority understand what happened. IC3 evidence guidance ↗
Payment records — if you paid, save the receipt, amount, date, payment provider and recipient details.
Exact dates & times — of each transaction and first contact with scammer
Screenshots — scam website, chat messages, emails, wallet transactions, social media
All URLs & domains used by the scammer (including paid-creatorfees.com)
Communications — emails, texts, phone numbers, usernames the scammer used
Even if you don't have all details — file a report anyway. Partial information still helps investigations.
Where should I report the scam?
FBI IC3 — Internet Crime Complaint Center (US federal reporting)
Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
Local police — creates an official record, even if they can't act immediately
A report is not a guarantee of recovery or investigation, but prompt, accurate transaction data can help authorities and service providers trace the incident.
How do phishing scams typically work?
Fake websites — pixel-perfect clones of legitimate sites with slightly altered domains
Pig butchering — trust built over weeks via Telegram/WhatsApp/dating apps, then money stolen
Recovery scams — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
AI-powered scams — deepfakes, automated phishing, and AI-generated sites making fraud harder to detect
How can I protect myself in the future?
Bookmark official sites — never click links from emails, DMs, or ads
Verify domains — check on PhishDestroy before interacting. Check HTTPS, spelling, domain age
"Too good to be true" = scam — guaranteed returns, celebrity endorsements, urgent deadlines
