nongqingfz.com hosted a copy of AEON Card's member portal. Its page title read "クレジットカードはイオンカード 暮らしのマネーサイト", the name of the Japanese card issuer's official "money site for daily life". The domain itself has nothing to do with AEON, so the lure depended entirely on the cloned page. It was aimed at Japanese AEON cardholders. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-09-09, it went offline on 2026-09-17, and its DNS was still inactive at the last check on 2026-10-19.
How the scam works
Campaigns like this usually reach victims by SMS or email warning about a suspicious charge, a suspended card or a points expiry, with a link to the fake portal. The cloned page asks for the AEON web service ID and password, then often for the full card number, expiry date, security code and sometimes a one-time passcode. With those details the operators can take over the online account, make card-not-present purchases or register the card in mobile payment apps before the victim notices.
Evidence
urlscan.io rated the page malicious and recognised the AEON Group brand on it. VirusTotal showed 5 of 89 engines flagging the domain on 2026-09-18: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, ESET, Gridinsoft and SOCRadar. That is a modest count, but it comes from vendors working independently of each other. The domain also appears in 4 AlienVault OTX threat pulses, which means other researchers linked it to active phishing activity, and it is listed on the PhishDestroy blocklist.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered through Gname.com Pte. Ltd. on 2024-09-28, almost two years before the phishing page was detected. That gap suggests a domain held in reserve or reused, not one bought for this campaign. It resolved to 198.44.46.105 on the AS-COLOCROSSING (HostPapa) network in the United States, far from the Japanese audience it targeted.
What to do
If you entered card details on this site, call AEON Card right away to block the card and get a replacement. Then review recent statements for charges you don't recognise. If you entered your web service ID or password, change the password on AEON's official site or app, and change it anywhere else you used it. Treat any later message about "verifying" your account as a follow-up attempt and never share one-time codes. Defenders should block the domain and its IP and search mail and SMS gateway logs for links to it. They should also warn Japanese-speaking users about AEON-branded lures.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.
Keep original emails, receipts, messages and screenshots in a secure place. A factual timeline helps the receiving authority understand what happened. IC3 evidence guidance ↗
