## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response)

operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file
for audit but no formal notice was sent.

kraken2-at.com — Brand Impersonation Investigation Report

PhishDestroy identifies kraken2-at.com as a domain engaged in brand impersonation, specifically targeting Kraken, a well-known brand in the cryptocurrency space, with no indication of a drainer kit being used. 

The technical indicators for this domain reveal a concerning picture, with a VirusTotal score of 6/95, indicating that 6 out of 95 security vendors have flagged this domain as malicious, it was registered through Gname 036 Inc, and has an IP address that is not immediately available, the domain was created on March 28, 2026, and is currently listed on 1 security blocklist, with a status of being taken offline by the registrar. 

Despite being taken offline, kraken2-at.com still poses a risk due to its previous brand impersonation activities, and users who may have interacted with this domain are advised to take immediate action to protect their assets, including monitoring their accounts for suspicious activity, and considering password resets, PhishDestroy recommends vigilance and continued monitoring to ensure the safety of Kraken users, utilizing the unique seed 657448 to inform this threat analysis

## 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.
