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: karsyn.ns.cloudflare.com, todd.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-05-07 Expires: 2027-05-07 Page title: Trustedfxtrade | Plateforme officielle de trading assisté par IA ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E7 Expires: 2026-08-05 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 7831d881afea8c0c7cb9540a25e94f09915602bf270f5dafc07b60019510a3ad ## 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: 2026-05-07 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-15 03:51:19 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-05-15 01:07:03 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-03 04:20:37 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-06 17:30:54 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e291b-d285-7651-aa56-a7c52c421420/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/1160dfa2-a3f2-4769-9365-386486f6576e Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/trustedfxtrade-fr.live crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.trustedfxtrade-fr.live Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=trustedfxtrade-fr.live AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/trustedfxtrade-fr.live URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/trustedfxtrade-fr.live/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-15 03:51:49 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies trustedfxtrade-fr.live as a newly launched credential-harvesting front masquerading as a legitimate FX broker portal. The domain leverages a freshly registered name and a current SSL certificate to appear credible, luring visitors into entering sensitive account details under the guise of forex trading services. Evidence indicates the campaign is still active and has yet to be widely blocked, giving it an opening to victimize unwary users. trustedfxtrade-fr.live was registered on May 07, 2026 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and resolves to IP 104.21.37.199. VirusTotal currently shows zero detections out of 95 scanners, and public threat feeds report no blocklist entries. This low signal suggests the campaign is still flying under the radar and emphasizes the need for rapid detection and response. If you visited trustedfxtrade-fr.live, assume credentials or payment data entered were captured by the operator. Immediately change passwords on the affected service and any reused accounts, enable multi-factor authentication where available, and scan local devices for malware. Report the incident to your security team or trusted fraud unit and avoid clicking any links received from contacts promoting FX trading opportunities.

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/trustedfxtrade-fr.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=trustedfxtrade-fr.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
