## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
CRITICAL THREAT — DO NOT VISIT
Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      13/95 security vendors flagged this domain
Public blocklists: listed on 2 independent blocklists

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      172.67.136.27 (CA, Toronto)
ASN:             AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.
Hosting org:     Cloudflare, Inc.
Registrar:       NameSilo, LLC

!!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!!
NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about
received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com)
for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our
X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence.
Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket —
NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-05-20 10:37:02 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies k-fin.cc as an active cryptocurrency drainer phishing domain designed to trick users into revealing seed phrases or private keys. The site mimics legitimate financial services to deceive victims into connecting wallets or entering sensitive credentials. No specific brand impersonation has been confirmed, but the domain leverages urgency and authority tactics typical of crypto drainer kits. Technical analysis reveals the infrastructure is newly established, with deployment likely aimed at exploiting early trust in the domain’s appearance.

This domain was flagged with a VirusTotal detection score of 0/95, indicating no antivirus engines have flagged it as malicious at the time of analysis. It resolves to IP address 172.67.136.27 and was registered on June 27, 2025, via NameSilo, LLC. The domain holds a valid SSL certificate from Google Trust Services and has appeared on 2 security blocklists, including blocks by MetaMask and SEAL. Despite the lack of detections, its recent creation, secure infrastructure, and multi-blocklist presence suggest coordinated malicious deployment.

The domain is currently active and under investigation, with an assigned risk level of 'under_investigation.' No takedown actions have been confirmed at this time. Users are strongly advised to avoid interacting with k-fin.cc or any associated links. The remaining risk is considered moderate-to-high due to the domain’s active status, reputable SSL certificate, and drainer-oriented infrastructure. Exercise extreme caution with links and never enter wallet credentials or seed phrases on untrusted domains.

[Updates since narrative was generated:]
  - VirusTotal detections: now 13/95 (narrative was written when count was lower)

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       6a524dbded67f5e462a9c39e50d60a3c
TLS cert SHA-256:      e0c3333010bdf3e4d36e2328f0eaa62f8337fee1fc01c4c8b67e83bdb2ac781b

## 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.
