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: ["jobs.ns.cloudflare.com", "linda.ns.cloudflare.com"] Page title: Pump.fun Cashback | Get 30% Back on Rug Pull Losses ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-09-01 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 31d7943af754871d0cb72ecc518bf6dee09afd46148561694392162296445dc7 ## 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-06-09 14:31:31 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-09 12:49:27 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-04 08:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-17 00:47:00 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019eac60-8e65-71b7-ad20-52fbeb470e36/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/540d9811-9a9c-4064-a8b6-af763b30800c Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/tradeback-pumps.fun crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.tradeback-pumps.fun Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=tradeback-pumps.fun AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/tradeback-pumps.fun URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/tradeback-pumps.fun/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 00:49:04 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, tradeback-pumps.fun, presents a high-risk brand impersonation scheme targeting users of Pump.fun, a platform associated with cryptocurrency projects. The site falsely advertises a 30% cashback offer for losses incurred from rug pulls, a common scam tactic in the crypto space. Such schemes exploit user trust by mimicking legitimate services to harvest credentials, private keys, or direct cryptocurrency transfers under the guise of refunds or compensation. The deceptive nature of this offer is designed to manipulate victims into disclosing sensitive information or sending funds to attacker-controlled wallets, leading to financial loss or account compromise. Analysis indicates that tradeback-pumps.fun was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with abusive domains. The domain resolves to the IP address 104.21.66.83 and employs Cloudflare services, which are often leveraged to obscure malicious infrastructure. Detection metrics further confirm its malicious intent: the domain appears on 4 security blocklists, including MetaMask, PhishDestroy, SEAL, and Maltrail. Additionally, 15 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flag the domain as malicious, while AlienVault OTX lists it in 3 threat intelligence pulses. The Gridinsoft trust score of 0/100 underscores its classification as a confirmed threat. Users who visited tradeback-pumps.fun or interacted with its content should take immediate action to mitigate potential risks. First, cease all communication with the site and avoid clicking any links or downloading files from it. If cryptocurrency transactions were initiated, attempt to revoke approvals for any suspicious smart contracts using a blockchain explorer or wallet interface. Monitor connected accounts for unauthorized activity and enable multi-factor authentication where available. Report the incident to relevant platforms and consider filing a complaint with local cybercrime authorities or cryptocurrency fraud reporting services. Regularly review wallet addresses and transaction histories to detect any anomalous behavior. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 15/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260609-16DA7B Favicon MD5: 3b95f264ba9ca3874a7cd5528ce97142 TLS cert SHA-256: 31d7943af754871d0cb72ecc518bf6dee09afd46148561694392162296445dc7 ## 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/tradeback-pumps.fun/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=tradeback-pumps.fun 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.
