Domain still online. Reports filed: 1 independent abuse notifications First report: 2026-07-22 18:03:53 UTC Days since first notice: 4 — no registrar action, domain remains online ICANN Compliance CC'd on at least one escalation — non-response is on record. Methodology: follow-up reports are sent ONLY when a victim re-submitted a re-report via our public form, our monitoring detected the domain resurfacing in SEO/feeds, OR our live-checker confirmed the domain is still technically active and fraudulent. Each report contains: VT verdict, URLScan snapshot, WHOIS, SSL metadata, IP/hosting chain, impersonated-brand evidence, drainer/kit classification, screenshots, and a cryptographic hash of the forensic PDF. ICANN RAA Sec. 3.18 applies.

Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] kautux.com — Generic Phishing Investigation The domain kautux.com is currently classified as a generic phishing site with an elevated risk rating and an active status as of July 22, 2026. Analysis of intelligence feeds shows that the domain is blocked by four independent filtering solutions: PhishDestroy, MetaMask, ScamSniffer, and SEAL. In addition, it appears on four external security blocklists, indicating broader recognition of its malicious intent across multiple threat‑sharing communities. VirusTotal reports that nine of the ninety‑five participating security vendors have flagged the domain, providing independent confirmation of its suspicious nature. No further technical details such as registrar, hosting IP, or SSL configuration are presently available in the intelligence set. The combined evidence from blocklist listings, vendor detections, and specialized anti‑phishing tools demonstrates a consistent pattern of malicious activity associated with kautux.com. Defensive teams should prioritize immediate blocking of the domain at network perimeter devices, DNS resolvers, and endpoint protection platforms. Continuous monitoring of related hash and URL indicators is recommended, as well as periodic re‑query of VirusTotal and blocklist sources for any changes in detection counts. Organizations employing email security gateways should ensure that inbound messages containing links to kautux.com are quarantined or rejected. Given the active status and elevated risk assessment, proactive mitigation remains essential to prevent credential harvesting or other phishing‑related compromises. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-1784736228-kautux.com TLS cert SHA-256: 0b628b33cc04b88e7b9b1086d6d0268e477acd93d56d90b6d536cbf767c3cef9 ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/kautux.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=kautux.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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
