Hosting org: 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. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-real https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-verdict Nameservers: greg.ns.cloudflare.com, miki.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-06-21 Expires: 2027-06-21 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-09-19 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 4c5f8b3a48d98a502a1a524ddc28128af66fd0626076813c25118be59f1d3dc9 ## 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: 2026-06-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-28 14:12:49 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-28 13:05:11 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-29 08:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-28 18:18:19 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f0e24-5ce2-71c8-9207-daa7aad5320a/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/rewards-ventuals.live crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.rewards-ventuals.live Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=rewards-ventuals.live AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/rewards-ventuals.live URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/rewards-ventuals.live/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-28 14:15:59 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain rewards-ventuals.live has been assessed as a high-risk domain specifically for fake login phishing. Analysis indicates that the domain is actively being used to deceive users into revealing their login credentials, which can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive accounts and data. Infrastructure analysis reveals that rewards-ventuals.live is registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. The domain was created on June 21, 2026, and currently resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3. According to VirusTotal, 4 out of 95 security vendors flag this domain as malicious, indicating a potential threat. The domain also appears on 2 security blocklists, further corroborating its malicious nature. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, which may be used to increase the credibility of the phishing site. Despite this, the domain is blocked by MetaMask and SEAL, suggesting that it has been identified as a threat by these security mechanisms. To mitigate the risks associated with this fake login phishing domain, users are advised to verify the URL of any login pages they visit, ensuring that they are accessing legitimate websites. Security teams should consider adding this domain to their blocklists and monitoring for any related indicators of compromise. Additionally, deploying multi-factor authentication (MFA) can significantly reduce the likelihood of successful credential theft, as it adds an extra layer of security beyond just usernames and passwords. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260628-057F26 Favicon MD5: dc37cbd91459539a1a75e40d80c09f71 TLS cert SHA-256: 4c5f8b3a48d98a502a1a524ddc28128af66fd0626076813c25118be59f1d3dc9 ## 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/rewards-ventuals.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=rewards-ventuals.live 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.
