# PhishDestroy threat dossier — votes-firelightfinance.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-26 14:34:22 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/votes-firelightfinance.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 67/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 6/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.21.24.152 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: ["keaton.ns.cloudflare.com", "oaklyn.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-06-02 Expires: 2027-06-01 Page title: Firelight - The Protection Layer for Digital Assets ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-08-30 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: b98b97a3e0f40bd74c030ba24f677e6273eda5f81c30d541748ecfa6bb7f8a5e ## 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: 2026-06-02 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-02 13:30:09 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-15 06:46:12 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-26 16:20:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-15 00:47:31 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-18 16:41:37 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, votes-firelightfinance.com, was set up as a sophisticated phishing site designed to drain cryptocurrency from unsuspecting victims. It impersonates Firelight, a legitimate digital asset protection service, tricking users into believing they are accessing a secure platform. The site likely aimed to steal login credentials and private keys, giving attackers full control over victims' crypto wallets and funds. Such threats are particularly dangerous because they exploit trust in well-known brands and often use convincing interfaces to lower the user's guard. PhishDestroy's analysis uncovered multiple red flags. The domain was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar frequently abused by malicious actors, and was created on June 02, 2026—a very recent date for a site claiming to be an established service. Security vendors are in agreement about its malicious nature: VirusTotal shows 6 out of 95 vendors flagging the domain, and it appears on three separate security blocklists. The site used an SSL certificate from Google Trust Services, which can lend a false sense of legitimacy, but the underlying IP address 104.21.24.152 is associated with other phishing campaigns. Fortunately, the site has been taken offline, but its infrastructure could be reused. If you visited this site or entered any information, take immediate action. Change your passwords for any accounts you may have used and enable two-factor authentication wherever possible. If you connected a crypto wallet, transfer your assets to a new wallet with a fresh seed phrase generated on a secure device. Monitor your accounts for unauthorized transactions and consider contacting your financial institution. Always verify a site's legitimacy by checking official sources and using PhishDestroy's database before interacting with any platform that requests sensitive information. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 774908dd96042307639e40a6950e03a0 TLS cert SHA-256: b98b97a3e0f40bd74c030ba24f677e6273eda5f81c30d541748ecfa6bb7f8a5e ## 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/votes-firelightfinance.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=votes-firelightfinance.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.
