# PhishDestroy threat dossier — xrp-flarefn.live ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-27 10:28:39 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/xrp-flarefn.live/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 0/91 security vendors flagged this domain URLQuery: 2 detections Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 188.114.97.3 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. 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: abdullah.ns.cloudflare.com, cloe.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-07-23 Expires: 2027-07-23 Page title: Flare — FLR Rewards Vote HTTP response: 403 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-10-21 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: c84c1a64be8c1b70d9ea969045389e7d0e357feb421aa74b2e03c42f79e1ca37 ## 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: 2026-07-23 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-07-26 14:57:44 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-07-26 13:00:38 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-27 12:24:45 UTC Neutralised: 2026-07-27 00:56:42 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f9e7f-4b07-70e0-b3cb-d41067f067f5/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/820d84b3-710a-42a4-b6a4-7046dc4b7a1a Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/xrp-flarefn.live crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.xrp-flarefn.live Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=xrp-flarefn.live AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/xrp-flarefn.live URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/xrp-flarefn.live/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-26 15:03:41 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] xrp-flarefn.live: Confirmed Phishing Site Analysis of xrp-flarefn.live indicates that the domain was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and created on July 23, 2026. The authoritative name servers listed are abdullah.ns.cloudflare.com and cloe.ns.cloudflare.com, pointing to infrastructure hosted by Cloudflare. DNS resolution currently returns the address 188.114.97.3, which is the sole IP observed for this domain. An SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services under the WE1 root is active, providing transport encryption but offering no assurance of legitimacy. The site presents the page title "Flare — FLR Rewards Vote," suggesting an attempt to lure victims with a reward‑related narrative, although the page content has not been publicly disclosed. The domain appears on one security blocklist and is explicitly blocked by PhishDestroy, confirming its classification as a phishing resource. VirusTotal reports that the domain was scanned by 91 security vendors and none raised a detection, a result that should not be interpreted as evidence of safety given the limited visibility of the payload. Defensive posture recommendations include adding 188.114.97.3 to network deny lists, monitoring DNS queries for the domain and its Cloudflare name servers, and enforcing URL filtering rules that block access to xrp-flarefn.live. Incident response teams should treat any communications referencing "FLR Rewards" or similar phrasing as potentially malicious, and users should be warned to avoid interacting with emails or messages that direct them to this URL. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised, as the domain remains active and may evolve its tactics. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260726-FBF726 Favicon MD5: dc270172d1648eb90a7ac9e496aaa7ec TLS cert SHA-256: c84c1a64be8c1b70d9ea969045389e7d0e357feb421aa74b2e03c42f79e1ca37 ## 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 (operator 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/xrp-flarefn.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=xrp-flarefn.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
