This report analyzes the domain kakaoapp.online, which presents an Index of / page, indicating a directory listing rather than a functional website. The site is suspected of impersonating the Kakao brand, likely to host malicious files or conduct phishing campaigns targeting Kakao users. The threat posed includes malware distribution or credential theft through deceptive file downloads.

Technical analysis reveals 9 out of 95 VirusTotal vendors flagged the domain, including alphaMountain.ai, Bfore.Ai PreCrime, CyRadar, Fortinet, and Gridinsoft. It appears on 3 blocklists. The domain is registered with Global Domain Group LLC and was created on 2026-03-12. The IP address 178.16.54.253 is hosted in the Netherlands under AS202412 Omegatech LTD. SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt R12. Nameservers are ns1.virtualine.org and ns2.virtualine.org.

Currently, the domain is DOWN or OFFLINE, limiting immediate risk. However, the DOM risk score of 70 indicates a high threat level. The site’s inactivity does not negate the potential for reactivation. It should be monitored and blocked proactively due to the strong association with impersonation and malicious file distribution.

Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations

For this gTLD, 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.
