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: ns1.sprinthost.ru, ns2.sprinthost.ru, ns3.sprinthost.net, ns4.sprinthost.net Registered: 2026-05-28 Expires: 2027-05-28 Page title: XRPTagFix — Recover XRP Sent Without a Destination Tag | Free Recovery Tool ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R13 Expires: 2026-08-26 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: a19e525dc9c82f6cad7bef3a5eb760d99c497472780e079abf8fd11cda66f6f6 ## 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: 2026-05-28 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-24 23:19:38 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-24 21:20:38 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-05 16:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-25 12:18:56 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019efb7f-e817-7494-a27d-b902d06ccb77/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/1705ee73-dde3-4219-9309-6178f38ccae4 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/xrptagfix.app crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.xrptagfix.app Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=xrptagfix.app AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/xrptagfix.app URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/xrptagfix.app/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-24 23:24:11 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain xrptagfix.app presents a significant threat as a likely cryptocurrency scam, specifically targeting users of the XRP Ledger. The site's name and common scam patterns suggest it impersonates a legitimate "tag fix" service, a known vector for phishing attacks designed to steal XRP wallet credentials and funds by tricking users into entering their secret keys or seed phrases. Technical evidence confirms the malicious nature of this domain. VirusTotal analysis shows 2 out of 95 security vendors flagging the site, specifically Bfore.Ai PreCrime and Webroot, and it appears on 1 blocklist. The domain is registered with NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, and was created on 2026-05-28, indicating a very recent setup. It resolves to IP address 141.8.195.177 and uses nameservers ns1.sprinthost.ru, ns2.sprinthost.ru, ns3.sprinthost.net, and ns4.sprinthost.net. The domain status is ACTIVE. The domain is currently active and poses a high risk. Its recent creation date and low detection rate on VirusTotal suggest it may still be in an early operational phase, actively targeting victims. Immediate blocking and user alerts are recommended to prevent credential theft and financial loss. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260624-815318 TLS cert SHA-256: a19e525dc9c82f6cad7bef3a5eb760d99c497472780e079abf8fd11cda66f6f6 ## 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/xrptagfix.app/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=xrptagfix.app 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.
