Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] real-nexus.cyou phishing site impersonates corporate portal – Analysis of the domain real-nexus.cyou indicates it is an active phishing infrastructure registered on July 25, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. As of July 28, 2026, the domain remains operational, resolving to the IP address 104.21.6.198 and utilizing Cloudflare nameservers adel.ns.cloudflare.com and javon.ns.cloudflare.com. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services under the WE1 intermediate, a configuration commonly observed in both legitimate and malicious sites leveraging Cloudflare services. The domain appears on one security blocklist and is currently blocked by PhishDestroy. No detections are recorded among the 91 vendors that scanned the domain on VirusTotal, though the absence of detections does not confirm safety. The exact content or targeted brand of the phishing page has not been analyzed, and no specific scam type or kit has been identified in available intelligence. Defenders should treat this domain as suspicious based on its recent registration, use of Cloudflare for potential obfuscation, and presence on a security blocklist. Network security teams are advised to monitor traffic to 104.21.6.198 and consider blocking the domain at perimeter controls pending further analysis. Additional investigation into the site’s content and any associated campaigns is recommended to determine the precise threat vector. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260728-4CB635 Favicon MD5: a10167f5b34d763cda797edf9fda2292 TLS cert SHA-256: f6a484ac0945b834cc39f60536dd4392c1274f6d25ec784c106a03b4f6f70aa9 ## 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/real-nexus.cyou/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=real-nexus.cyou 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.
