# PhishDestroy threat dossier — kraken-supportchat.kb.help ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-29 20:29:11 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/kraken-supportchat.kb.help/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 77/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Targeted brand: Kraken ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 5/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ChainPatrol, alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft Public blocklists: listed on 3 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Registrar: Marcaria International LLC Nameservers: ["ns-1181.awsdns-19.org", "ns-1794.awsdns-32.co.uk", "ns-607.awsdns-11.net", "ns-83.awsdns-10.com"] Registered: 2026-06-11 HTTP response: 404 ## 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: 2026-06-11 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-12 00:30:28 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-29 20:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-12 06:27:33 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 23:34:21 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain is flagged as an elevated-risk brand impersonation threat targeting Kraken, a cryptocurrency exchange. Analysis indicates the infrastructure was designed to deceive users into believing they are interacting with official Kraken support channels, likely to facilitate unauthorized access to accounts or direct fund transfers under false pretenses. The specific threat type aligns with known patterns of crypto-related fraud, including fake login portals or social engineering schemes to extract credentials or private keys from victims. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain kraken-supportchat.kb.help was registered on June 11, 2026, through Marcaria International LLC, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk domains. VirusTotal reports 5 out of 95 security vendors flagging the domain as malicious, while it appears on three distinct security blocklists. The SSL certificate is issued by Amazon, a common provider for both legitimate and malicious domains, which does not inherently indicate trustworthiness. The domain has since been taken offline, though historical records confirm it was blocked by multiple security mechanisms, including wallet protection tools and phishing detection systems. No associated IP addresses or hosting providers were provided in the initial data, limiting further network-based attribution. Mitigation for users who may have interacted with this domain involves immediate action to secure potentially compromised accounts. Affected individuals should revoke any active sessions, reset passwords using multi-factor authentication, and review transaction histories for unauthorized activity. Cryptocurrency wallet holders should verify no unexpected approvals or token allowances were granted to unknown contracts. Organizations should update blocklists to include this domain and monitor for similar patterns, such as subdomains mimicking support or helpdesk portals. Given the elevated risk of financial loss, users are advised to report interactions with this domain to relevant fraud reporting platforms and cryptocurrency exchanges to assist in broader threat disruption efforts. ## 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/kraken-supportchat.kb.help/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=kraken-supportchat.kb.help 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.
