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: etta.ns.cloudflare.com, henrik.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-05-27 Expires: 2027-05-27 Page title: Vaste Investène | Official Platform for AI Assisted Trading ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E7 Expires: 2026-08-25 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 5ad2993b9a970c49c36cf0c3e9ef760641cdb98655c2fccf623c18e7bd56298f ## 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: 2026-05-27 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-01 02:23:31 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-01 01:02:29 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-28 04:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-15 00:59:48 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e8056-0b7d-7181-8b97-6228be7364ef/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/b9c8e38b-c93e-42d9-8028-1ccd7f6360a8 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/vasteinvestene.live crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.vasteinvestene.live Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=vasteinvestene.live AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/vasteinvestene.live URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/vasteinvestene.live/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 03:11:55 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, vasteinvestene.live, operates as a brand impersonation scam designed to deceive users into believing it is an official platform for AI-assisted trading. The site falsely presents itself as "Vaste Investène | Official Platform for AI Assisted Trading," exploiting interest in automated investment tools to lure victims. Such schemes typically aim to extract sensitive financial information, cryptocurrency deposits, or personal credentials under the pretense of high-return trading opportunities. The fraudulent nature of this infrastructure is consistent with investment scams that promise unrealistic profits while concealing the absence of legitimate regulatory oversight or operational transparency. Analysis of the domain reveals multiple indicators of malicious activity. The domain was registered on May 27, 2026, through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk registrations. It resolves to the IP address 104.21.0.219 and uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which, while common among legitimate sites, is also routinely exploited by threat actors to create a false sense of security. Security vendors on VirusTotal flagged the domain as malicious, with 10 out of 95 engines detecting it as harmful. Additionally, the domain appears on one security blocklist, and Gridinsoft assigns it a trust score of 0/100, further confirming its fraudulent classification. The creation date in the future (2026) suggests an attempt to evade detection by appearing as a newly registered domain with no prior history. Users who visited vasteinvestene.live or interacted with its content should take immediate action to mitigate potential risks. If any personal, financial, or login credentials were entered on the site, these should be considered compromised and changed immediately across all platforms where they were reused. Affected individuals should monitor their financial accounts and credit reports for unauthorized transactions or signs of identity theft. Additionally, devices used to access the domain should be scanned for malware, as some investment scams deploy secondary payloads to maintain persistence. Reporting the domain to relevant cybersecurity organizations or financial regulators can aid in broader efforts to disrupt such fraudulent operations. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 10/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260601-ECEAA9 Favicon MD5: 51ef3b344a3491ba956860bebe8eaef0 TLS cert SHA-256: 5ad2993b9a970c49c36cf0c3e9ef760641cdb98655c2fccf623c18e7bd56298f ## 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/vasteinvestene.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=vasteinvestene.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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
