Score
76/100

The domain tactics-whales.live was registered on July 27, 2026 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and is currently active. DNS resolution points to the IP address 188.114.97.3 and the domain is serviced by Cloudflare nameservers magdalena.ns.cloudflare.com and nitin.ns.cloudflare.com, indicating use of a reputable content delivery network for hosting. VirusTotal has processed the domain with 91 antivirus and URL scanning engines, reporting no detections; however, the lack of positive findings does not constitute confirmation of safety and should be interpreted as a neutral result pending further analysis.

The domain is listed on a single security blocklist and has been explicitly blocked by the PhishDestroy filtering service, demonstrating that at least one external threat intelligence provider has identified it as malicious. The threat classification provided is generic phishing, and the operational status is marked as active while the investigation remains open. No publicly available page title, SSL certificate details, HTTP status code, or Safe Browsing report are currently available, leaving the content and surface characteristics of the site unverified.

Defenders should therefore treat the domain as a potential phishing vector, incorporate the domain and its associated IP address into outbound and inbound filtering rules, and monitor for any future appearance in additional threat feeds. Continuous re‑evaluation of the domain’s reputation, especially after any new detections or community reports, is recommended to adjust protective controls promptly.

Accreditation and RAA context

Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations

For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.

Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.

RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.

Accountability draft Nothing is sent automatically.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.
