# PhishDestroy threat dossier — whitepaper.nexiumsol.fun ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-28 08:40:27 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/whitepaper.nexiumsol.fun/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 83/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Airdrop Scam Targeted brand: Solana Phishing kit: Airdrop Scam ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: Gridinsoft URLQuery: 2 detections Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 162.0.208.239 (US, Phoenix) ASN: ASAS22612 NAMECHEAP-NET - Namecheap, Inc., US Hosting org: AS22612 Namecheap, Inc. Registrar: NAMECHEAP INC Nameservers: pdns1.registrar-servers.com, pdns2.registrar-servers.com Registered: 2025-12-20 Expires: 2026-12-20 Page title: NexiumSol Whitepaper - Eco-Friendly Airdrop on Solana HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R13 Expires: 2026-08-04 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: a625380623b077f5757caad4e0e6b7dc793c5e44d8b2605a147507772a0dee08 ## 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: 2025-12-20 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-26 15:17:56 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-26 13:22:58 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-28 08:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-26 18:16:44 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f0412-df1f-7756-badf-173ea72f7b99/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/fe97fdc6-065a-474d-a7a5-47f2be5aaef7 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/whitepaper.nexiumsol.fun crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.whitepaper.nexiumsol.fun Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=whitepaper.nexiumsol.fun AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/whitepaper.nexiumsol.fun URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/whitepaper.nexiumsol.fun/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 17:12:22 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, whitepaper.nexiumsol.fun, is flagged for brand impersonation targeting Solana, specifically promoting a fraudulent eco-friendly airdrop whitepaper. Analysis indicates the domain is actively engaged in deceptive practices, leveraging the reputation of the Solana blockchain to mislead users into interacting with malicious content. The current status of the domain remains active, posing an ongoing threat to unsuspecting individuals seeking legitimate Solana-related projects. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered through NAMECHEAP INC on December 20, 2025, and resolves to the IP address 162.0.208.239. Despite its recent creation, the domain has not been flagged by any of the 95 vendors on VirusTotal, indicating it may still evade detection in many security systems. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, a common practice among both legitimate and malicious domains to establish a false sense of security. Additional trust indicators, such as a Gridinsoft trust score of 0/100, further corroborate the domain's suspicious nature. The current status of whitepaper.nexiumsol.fun remains active, and users are strongly advised to exercise caution. Immediate recommendations include blocking the domain and its associated IP address (162.0.208.239) at the network level to prevent access. Organizations should update their threat intelligence feeds to include this domain and monitor for any attempts to interact with it. End-users should be educated on recognizing brand impersonation tactics, particularly those involving fake airdrops or whitepapers, and encouraged to verify the authenticity of such offers through official Solana communication channels. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 1/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260626-3B3CC6 Favicon MD5: f124c44469024d98aa207d7759b7aace TLS cert SHA-256: a625380623b077f5757caad4e0e6b7dc793c5e44d8b2605a147507772a0dee08 ## 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/whitepaper.nexiumsol.fun/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=whitepaper.nexiumsol.fun 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.
