## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 53/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      3/94 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Gridinsoft
AlienVault OTX:  1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions)
Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Registered:      2026-03-28

## 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

krab-5-c.ru - Malicious Phishing Domain

The domain krab-5-c.ru stands out in the threat landscape with 3 out of 94 vendors on VirusTotal identifying it as malicious. Despite its current offline status, the domain's history indicates its use for phishing activities. PhishDestroy has included it in its blocklist, underscoring the threat it posed during its active period.

Registered on March 28, 2026, krab-5-c.ru was operational for a brief window before being taken down. During this time, it engaged in phishing operations, targeting unsuspecting users. The rapid detection and subsequent flagging by multiple security vendors highlight the domain's malicious intent and the effectiveness of collaborative cybersecurity efforts.

PhishDestroy's proactive inclusion of krab-5-c.ru in its blocklist reflects its commitment to early threat identification. While the domain is no longer active, its brief existence serves as a reminder of the ever-present threat of phishing domains. The swift action taken by cybersecurity entities demonstrates the importance of vigilance and the need for continuous monitoring of newly registered domains.

Favicon MD5:       9ad3ef5fa05de897b929c0068fd9ab89

## 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.
