## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 74/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Fake Exchange
Targeted brand: Kraken

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      2/94 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Fortinet
URLQuery:        -1 detections
AlienVault OTX:  1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions)

## 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.

Is kraken-info24.com a Brand Impersonation Scam?

PhishDestroy identifies kraken-info24.com as a domain engaged in brand impersonation, specifically targeting the cryptocurrency exchange Kraken, without any known drainer kit involvement. 

The domain was created on March 28, 2026, and has been flagged by 2 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, while also being listed on 1 security blocklist, and was found in 1 AlienVault OTX threat intelligence pulse, indicating its potential malicious activity. 

Despite being taken offline, kraken-info24.com still poses an elevated risk due to its previous brand impersonation activities, and users are advised to remain vigilant and avoid interacting with any similar domains, as the unique seed b9b801 suggests a potentially complex threat landscape, thus requiring continuous monitoring and safety measures to prevent potential attacks.

## 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.
