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.

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: 2026-04-11 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-11 21:18:55 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-04-11 19:02:54 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-04-22 07:40:19 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-22 02:22:02 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019d7dc3-2ed9-77ac-af3c-7b6e8c7a9a28/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/f64a9f85-2961-4207-ac62-299fedc82e5c Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/trx-check.net crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.trx-check.net Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=trx-check.net AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/trx-check.net URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/trx-check.net/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-11 21:19:21 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy has classified trx-check.net as an active threat with a risk level currently under investigation. The domain is suspected to be involved in crypto transaction phishing, targeting users by attempting to steal credentials related to cryptocurrency transfers. This domain resolves to the IP address 172.67.167.34 and was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED on April 8, 2026. VirusTotal scans show 0 detections out of 95 engines, so it has not been flagged by antivirus yet. The site uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which is common and does not guarantee legitimacy. There are no current blocklist entries or trust scores available for this domain. To mitigate risks associated with crypto transaction phishing, users should avoid entering sensitive information on this domain. Organizations should monitor network traffic for connections to 172.67.167.34 and consider blocking access until further investigation is complete. Employing multi-factor authentication and educating users about crypto phishing tactics can further reduce exposure to this threat. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260411-660163 Favicon MD5: cf22b1ff9089caf6803645cb5deaaf32 TLS cert SHA-256: c856e19ea9a44fc2d3ebb524f97fc5a118a3a9a084011f2626213ffec2a79873 ## 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/trx-check.net/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=trx-check.net 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.
