================================================================

Fetched:   2026-05-25 19:07:55 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/karak-network.sbs/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: cryptocurrency
Targeted brand: across (and: binance, coinbase, discord, ethereum, foundation)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      2/93 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Webroot
Public blocklists: listed on 4 independent blocklists

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      104.21.48.1 (US, San Francisco)
ASN:             ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET, US
Hosting org:     AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.

Page title:      Karak - Universal network for verifiable finance

## TLS CERTIFICATE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     WE1
Status:     INVALID chain

## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Status: CLOSED — no report required.
This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either
the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the
operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file
for audit but no formal notice was sent.

## TIMELINE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Domain registered: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)

Last verified:     2026-05-16 19:40:26 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-04-23 04:17:12 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-24 00:20:04 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies karak-network.sbs as a generic phishing site targeting users under the pretense of a universal network for verifiable finance. The domain was registered on February 21, 2026, and continues to operate actively.

This domain resolves to IP 104.21.48.1 and appears on four distinct security blocklists, although only two out of ninety-five VirusTotal vendors currently flag it. Its infrastructure and low detection rate suggest early-stage phishing activity or minimal distribution.

Despite the low risk level, karak-network.sbs remains active and is monitored closely. Users are advised to avoid interactions and report suspicious communications linked to this domain to improve collective threat awareness.

## 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.
