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: ["nia.ns.cloudflare.com", "dante.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-06-01 Page title: Just a moment...

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: 2026-06-01 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-01 03:10:50 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-01 03:10:48 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-02 16:20:38 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-15 13:20:08 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e8081-8efa-75e8-b8d7-feb5febebc8a/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/security.flare.community crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.security.flare.community Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=security.flare.community AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/security.flare.community URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/security.flare.community/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-23 15:23:40 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain security.flare.community displays the page title "Just a moment..." which is commonly associated with a Cloudflare challenge page, indicating the site is actively blocking direct access. This domain is flagged as malicious by 3 out of 95 VirusTotal vendors, including ChainPatrol, alphaMountain.ai, and Fortinet. The site is likely engaged in phishing or fraud, impersonating a security or community platform to deceive users. The threat it poses includes potential credential theft or malware distribution, as indicated by the blocklist status and low trust score. Technical evidence shows the domain is registered with NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and hosted on IP address 104.26.2.19. It uses an SSL certificate from Let's Encrypt (E7). The nameservers are nia.ns.cloudflare.com and dante.ns.cloudflare.com. The domain status is ACTIVE. GridinSoft trust rating is 0 out of 100, and the DOM risk score is 63, indicating a medium-to-high risk level. As of the current status, the domain remains active and accessible via the Cloudflare network. The risk level is elevated due to the high DOM risk score and multiple vendor flags. Users should avoid interacting with this domain to prevent potential security incidents. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: dc270172d1648eb90a7ac9e496aaa7ec TLS cert SHA-256: fd075c9f5e0fd9a2d353b10f749b902c5def2856bb9a5e2d2c021339829687f8 ## 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/security.flare.community/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=security.flare.community 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.
