cm-kraken.vip: Confirmed Kraken Brand Impersonation

Analysis on July 19, 2026 identifies cm-kraken.vip as an active high‑risk brand‑impersonation site targeting Kraken users. The domain resolves to IP 188.114.96.3, which is hosted by Cloudflare, Inc. in Canada and presents a TLS certificate issued by Google Trust Services under the WE1 label. Registration was performed through Dynadot Inc., and the authoritative name servers are newt.ns.cloudflare.com and nola.ns.cloudflare.com. The site returns HTTP 200 responses while the HTML page title displays “403 Forbidden”. The domain is listed on three security blocklists and has been flagged by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. AlienVault OTX records show the domain appearing in two threat‑intel pulses, and VirusTotal reports twelve of ninety‑one scanners marking the domain as malicious. Despite these indicators, the exact malicious payload or credential‑harvesting mechanism has not been publicly disclosed. Defenders should add 188.114.96.3 and cm-kraken.vip to network denial lists, enforce TLS inspection to verify the Google Trust Services certificate, and monitor for any traffic to the Cloudflare‑hosted infrastructure. Continuous intelligence gathering is advised to detect any evolution of the site’s content or additional command‑and‑control endpoints.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      d53e3d8948b7d328f0138cd98ce0b1da141fe0058a17709b5a5e4186f88d018b

## 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.
