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: 2026-06-09 Expires: 2027-06-09 Page title: Zebec Network | Real‑Time Crypto Payroll & Payments ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-09-07 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 04148a787fdbf17e64b9a19dd6e82522e9f4048d7b4b1d6ba1a644014dcb820d ## 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: 2026-06-09 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-17 06:20:44 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-17 21:20:54 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-23 16:20:36 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-18 00:27:08 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ed3cd-c69a-7781-a281-0efa3fcbedb5/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/993d3fde-c6f8-47c7-a5f1-e9f7b4c3d780 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/zebac-dao.xyz crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.zebac-dao.xyz Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=zebac-dao.xyz AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/zebac-dao.xyz URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/zebac-dao.xyz/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-18 16:35:09 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy has identified zebac-dao.xyz as a generic phishing domain with an elevated risk level. The site impersonates the legitimate Zebec Network, a real-time crypto payroll and payments platform, using the page title "Zebec Network | Real‑Time Crypto Payroll & Payments" to deceive users. No specific drainer kit was identified, but the domain's structure and behavior are consistent with credential harvesting or wallet-draining attacks. Technical indicators paint a clear picture of malicious intent. VirusTotal reports 5 out of 95 security vendors flagging this domain as malicious. The domain was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED on June 09, 2026, which is notably in the future, suggesting possible data anomalies or fabricated registration dates. It resolves to IP address 188.114.97.3, hosted behind Cloudflare (Google Trust Services SSL certificate WE1). The domain appears on 2 security blocklists, and its current status is offline, indicating it has been taken down or suspended. As of now, zebac-dao.xyz is offline, which reduces immediate risk. However, users should remain vigilant as similar domains may reappear. PhishDestroy recommends avoiding any interaction with this domain, not clicking links from unsolicited messages claiming to be from Zebec Network, and verifying official URLs directly from the company's verified channels. If credentials were entered on this site, users should change passwords immediately and enable two-factor authentication on all crypto-related accounts. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260617-74E911 TLS cert SHA-256: 04148a787fdbf17e64b9a19dd6e82522e9f4048d7b4b1d6ba1a644014dcb820d ## 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/zebac-dao.xyz/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=zebac-dao.xyz 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.
