# PhishDestroy threat dossier — krabl9.cc ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-04-24 02:28:26 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/krabl9.cc/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 76/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Generic Phishing ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 6/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, LevelBlue, Sophos ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 172.67.171.228 (CA, Toronto) ASN: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Hosting org: Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!! NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-real https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-verdict Nameservers: ["aleena.ns.cloudflare.com", "jay.ns.cloudflare.com"] Registered: 2026-03-28 Page title: krab9.cc - Новая Рабочая Ссылка ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-05-11 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 22a2fd8791450aa4d0d00fec735e10f12efb3e9074e94ee0b5fcc6945abac6a2 ## 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: 2026-03-28 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-03-29 01:31:58 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-03-28 22:33:06 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-04-23 01:18:06 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-23 00:16:33 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019d3691-69e4-73d4-a117-3b5ae539a296/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/5b9c1dd1-c81c-4055-b175-7476eb204cc0 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/krabl9.cc crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.krabl9.cc Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=krabl9.cc AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/krabl9.cc URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/krabl9.cc/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-03-29 01:32:28 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies krabl9.cc as a domain actively involved in a generic phishing campaign, currently under investigation by security teams. The domain does not appear to impersonate a specific brand or utilize a known drainer kit at this stage, but its operational infrastructure suggests malicious intent. The domain resolves to IP 172.67.171.228 and was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, with creation scheduled for December 12, 2025— a suspiciously future-dated timestamp that may indicate preemptive domain squatting. SSL encryption is provided by Google Trust Services, a tactic often leveraged to lend false legitimacy to phishing pages. This domain exhibits weak detection signals, with VirusTotal showing 0/95 detections as of the latest scan. While SSL certificates from trusted providers can enhance phishing credibility, the absence of detections suggests either a very new deployment or evasive infrastructure. The domain’s registrar, NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, is known for bulk domain registrations and has previously been associated with high-volume malicious domains. Despite its low detection score, krabl9.cc remains unblocked across major threat intelligence platforms, increasing exposure risk to potential victims. As of this report, krabl9.cc is categorized as ‘active’ with an ‘under_investigation’ status by domain safety teams. Response actions are ongoing, including ongoing monitoring of the associated IP and SSL certificate chain. The domain’s future-dated creation date and low VT score contribute to a moderate to high risk profile. Users are strongly advised to avoid clicking on links from unsolicited emails or messages related to krabl9.cc and to report any interactions with this domain via trusted cybersecurity channels. Full forensic indicators and mitigation steps are available in the complete PhishDestroy report. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 6/94 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260328-68BCA3 Favicon MD5: 7a8920b132f3579d7b00abf8a49c6df5 TLS cert SHA-256: 22a2fd8791450aa4d0d00fec735e10f12efb3e9074e94ee0b5fcc6945abac6a2 ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/krabl9.cc/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=krabl9.cc 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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
