Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, directvault-kraken.com, impersonates the Kraken brand and poses a threat as a phishing site designed to steal user credentials or financial information from Kraken customers. The site likely mimics legitimate Kraken login or account pages to trick users into entering sensitive data. Technical evidence shows the domain was flagged by 3 out of 95 VirusTotal vendors, including ChainPatrol, alphaMountain.ai, and Bfore.Ai PreCrime. It was created on 2026-03-26 and registered through Hosting Concepts B.V. d/b/a Registrar.eu. The domain resolves to IP address 172.67.142.184 (United States), hosted by AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Nameservers are katelyn.ns.cloudflare.com and ricardo.ns.cloudflare.com. The domain is listed on 3 blocklists. The current status of this domain is BANNED. The risk level is high due to its impersonation of a well-known financial brand and active detection by multiple security vendors, despite the low VirusTotal detection count. Users should avoid any interaction with this domain. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260624-5BBA43 ## 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/directvault-kraken.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=directvault-kraken.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.
