# PhishDestroy threat dossier — 819248kraken.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-28 08:48:15 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/819248kraken.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: cryptocurrency Targeted brand: kraken ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 20/93 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, ChainPatrol, Criminal IP, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, Google Safebrowsing, Gridinsoft, Lionic, Phishing Database, Seclookup, SOCRadar, Sophos, Trustwave, VIPRE, Webroot AlienVault OTX: 14 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 2 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 88.223.84.196 (US, Boston) ASN: ASAS47583 AS-HOSTINGER Hostinger International Limited, CY Hosting org: AS47583 Hostinger International Limited Registrar: HOSTINGER operations, UAB Registered: 2025-11-28 Expires: 2026-11-28 Page title: Kraken ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: R13 Status: INVALID chain ## 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: 2025-11-28 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-26 23:19:55 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-02-26 23:19:55 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-28 08:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-09 17:11:22 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019acc0d-7c01-7048-b1f8-7be89863749f/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/819248kraken.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.819248kraken.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=819248kraken.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/819248kraken.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/819248kraken.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 21:24:28 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain 819248kraken.com has been identified with an elevated risk level due to activities consistent with brand impersonation. Specifically, the domain attempts to mimic the legitimate Kraken brand, which is a significant concern as it may be used in phishing campaigns targeting users of that service. The page title 'Kraken' further underscores the intent to deceive users into believing they are interacting with the authentic brand. Analysis of the domain reveals multiple concerning data points. VirusTotal reports that 20 out of 95 security vendors have flagged this domain, indicating a consensus among security experts that the domain poses a threat. The domain was registered through HOSTINGER operations, UAB and resolves to IP address 88.223.84.196, located in the United States under AS47583 (Hostinger International Limited). Despite the domain being created in the future, on November 28, 2025, its current status is marked as offline. The domain's SSL certificate is categorized as R13. It has been added to at least two security blocklists, including PhishDestroy and PhishingDB, further supporting the assessment of its malicious intent. To mitigate risks associated with this type of brand impersonation, users are advised to exercise caution when encountering domains that appear similar to legitimate services. Verification of domain authenticity through direct access to known URLs, rather than links received via email or other communications, is essential. Organizations should consider incorporating threat intelligence feeds into their security operations to automatically block or flag suspicious domains like 819248kraken.com. Regular updates to filtering and security protocols can also help prevent exposure to similar threats in the future. ## 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/819248kraken.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=819248kraken.com 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.
