Score
80/100

The domain app.merki.claims presents as a cryptocurrency-related website, but the page title "merki.claims | 522: Connection timed out" indicates the site is currently inaccessible. The site poses a threat as a cryptocurrency scam, likely designed to deceive users into providing funds or sensitive information under false pretenses.

Technical analysis reveals the domain was flagged by 5 out of 95 VirusTotal vendors, with detections from alphaMountain.ai, Fortinet, Gridinsoft, Seclookup, and SOCRadar. It is listed on 2 blocklists. The domain was registered on 2025-12-08 through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited, and is hosted on IP address 198.18.1.31 (United States), assigned to AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. SSL certification is provided by Google Trust Services (WE1), and nameservers are cass.ns.cloudflare.com and anirban.ns.cloudflare.com.

The domain is currently down or offline, which may indicate active remediation or temporary unavailability. Given the cryptocurrency scam classification, multiple vendor detections, and recent creation date, the risk level is elevated. Users should avoid any interaction with this domain.

Accreditation and RAA context

Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations

For the registrable domain merki.claims behind this subdomain, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.

Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.

RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.
