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: guss.ns.cloudflare.com, lindsey.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-04-04 HTTP response: 429 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E8 Expires: 2026-06-30 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 72f483ae46f68f1578dbab8e7def53e4c360daf65fe96ad9586fa1e730150960 ## 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: 2026-04-04 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-04 18:45:39 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-04-04 16:37:27 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-04-23 04:08:46 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-23 04:08:46 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019d592a-d486-72bc-9530-17c70eed75b2/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/d150b478-e1d4-4f37-b8b7-9f2920dc5eb4 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/tripscans.icu crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.tripscans.icu Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=tripscans.icu AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/tripscans.icu URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/tripscans.icu/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-04 18:46:51 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The risk level for tripscans.icu is currently under investigation, with a specific threat identified as a fake login phishing scam. This domain is actively used to deceive victims by mimicking legitimate login pages to steal credentials. Due to the nature of this scam, users should exercise heightened caution when interacting with this domain. PhishDestroy's analysis shows that tripscans.icu has zero detections out of 95 engines on VirusTotal, indicating it has not yet been flagged by most security vendors. The domain was registered on April 01, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, and resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3. It uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which can lend false credibility. Despite the lack of current blocklist hits, these factors combined with the phishing type raise concern. To mitigate risks, users should avoid entering any credentials on tripscans.icu or links directing to it. Organizations should consider blocking the IP 188.114.96.3 and monitoring for related phishing attempts. Verification through PhishDestroy and other threat intelligence platforms is recommended before trusting communications referencing this domain. Maintaining updated security software and educating users on fake login scams are essential steps to prevent credential compromise. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260404-A643D2 Favicon MD5: c5cfb4fddc6fcf16d600c10b2c42e0fa TLS cert SHA-256: 72f483ae46f68f1578dbab8e7def53e4c360daf65fe96ad9586fa1e730150960 ## 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/tripscans.icu/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=tripscans.icu 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.
