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: ["darl.ns.cloudflare.com", "laura.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-05-16 Page title: Voting — DEX ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-08-13 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: e11618dfd1643216da2555f4d91b587bc6044a13d45d98577faa6b74924973c3 ## 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: 2026-05-16 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-17 00:36:52 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-05-17 00:36:38 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-28 20:20:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-06 17:30:40 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e32b6-9f72-760f-b9b7-ab445e927cc0/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/upvote-dexscreener.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.upvote-dexscreener.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=upvote-dexscreener.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/upvote-dexscreener.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/upvote-dexscreener.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-17 00:37:18 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies upvote-dexscreener.com as an active fake DEXScreener phishing domain, specifically designed to deceive users searching for legitimate token tracking services. The domain impersonates the brand DEXScreener to harvest login credentials, wallet addresses, and transaction data, endangering cryptocurrency assets. This site was created to exploit user trust in well-known analytics platforms, posing a significant risk to individuals seeking real-time token information. This domain was flagged by 2 of 95 VirusTotal vendors, registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, and resolves to IP address 172.67.165.237. The domain was created on May 15, 2026, making it a very recent threat. Notably, it utilizes a Google Trust Services SSL certificate, which may be leveraged to appear legitimate to users. The low VirusTotal detection rate suggests this domain is still relatively new to blacklists, increasing the risk of successful deception. Users are strongly advised to avoid interacting with upvote-dexscreener.com or entering any sensitive information. The domain mimics legitimate DEXScreener services and may prompt wallet connections or login attempts, exposing users to theft or credential harvesting. Verify URLs manually by comparing them to the official DEXScreener website (dexscreener.com) before entering any data. Install browser extensions that block known malicious domains and use hardware wallets for transactions. Report this domain to Google Safe Browsing and your antivirus provider to help increase detection rates and protect the broader community from this phishing campaign. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: a9dc2a5dcb1e7d936e0712524250cda1 TLS cert SHA-256: e11618dfd1643216da2555f4d91b587bc6044a13d45d98577faa6b74924973c3 ## 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/upvote-dexscreener.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=upvote-dexscreener.com 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.
