# PhishDestroy threat dossier — kraken6.art ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-07-22 09:47:27 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/kraken6.art/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 87/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Brand Impersonation Targeted brand: Kraken ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 14/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Chong Lua Dao, CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Lionic AlienVault OTX: 1 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Registered: 2026-03-29 ## 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: 2026-03-29 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-03-29 05:30:10 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-22 08:20:50 UTC Neutralised: 2026-03-30 12:06:57 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 13:56:34 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] kraken6.art: Confirmed Crypto Brand Impersonation Site This domain, kraken6.art, poses a direct threat to users of the Kraken cryptocurrency exchange by impersonating its official branding and interface. Analysis indicates the site was designed to deceive visitors into entering sensitive account credentials or wallet details, likely functioning as a crypto drainer or fake login portal. Such impersonation schemes often lead to unauthorized access, financial theft, or complete loss of digital assets, particularly targeting users unfamiliar with security best practices. Infrastructure analysis reveals concrete indicators of malicious intent. The domain was registered on March 29, 2026, through NameSilo, a registrar frequently associated with high-risk domains. Security vendors have flagged kraken6.art as malicious, with 14 out of 95 engines on VirusTotal detecting it as a threat. Additionally, the domain appears on one security blocklist, further confirming its fraudulent nature. The combination of recent registration, brand impersonation, and vendor detections provides strong evidence of its malicious purpose. If you visited kraken6.art or interacted with its content, immediate action is required to mitigate potential damage. First, disconnect any devices used to access the site from the internet to prevent further data exfiltration. Next, revoke any active sessions or API keys associated with your Kraken account and enable multi-factor authentication if not already active. Monitor your account for unauthorized transactions and consider transferring assets to a new wallet if you entered private keys or recovery phrases. Report the incident to the legitimate platform and relevant cybersecurity authorities to assist in tracking and preventing further abuse. ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/kraken6.art/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=kraken6.art 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
