================================================================

Fetched:   2026-07-22 12:43:52 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/kraken12j.at/

## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 69/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Brand Impersonation
Targeted brand: Kraken

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      2/94 security vendors flagged this domain
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

kraken12j.at Safety Check — Brand Impersonation Detected

PhishDestroy identifies kraken12j.at as a domain engaged in brand impersonation, specifically targeting the cryptocurrency exchange Kraken, without any known association with a drainer kit. 
   
This domain was flagged due to its malicious activities, with a VirusTotal score of 2/95, indicating that only a couple of security vendors have flagged it, and it is registered with a registrar that has hosted other malicious domains, with an IP address that has been linked to similar threats, created on March 28, 2026, and currently has a Google Safe Browsing status that does not explicitly flag it, but it does appear on 1 security blocklist.

The current status of kraken12j.at is offline, which may indicate that the malicious activity has been disrupted, but the risk level remains elevated, as the domain could be resurrected or other similar domains could be created, therefore, it is essential to remain vigilant and take necessary precautions to avoid potential threats, such as being cautious when clicking on links or providing sensitive information, and ensuring that all software and security systems are up to date, to minimize the risk of falling victim to brand impersonation and other types of cyber threats.

## 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.
