## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 87/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Fake Exchange
Targeted brand: Kraken

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      14/94 security vendors flagged this domain
  Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky, Lionic, Sophos, VIPRE, Webroot

## 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 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)

krakendarknetbot.com Safety Check — Brand Impersonation Detected

Analysis indicates that the domain krakendarknetbot.com poses a specific threat of brand impersonation, targeting the well-known cryptocurrency exchange Kraken. This domain was used to deceive users by mimicking the legitimate Kraken website, potentially leading to the theft of login credentials and other sensitive information.

Infrastructure analysis reveals that the domain was created on March 29, 2026. It is currently listed on 1 security blocklist and has been flagged by 14 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating a moderate level of detection among the cybersecurity community. The domain was identified by the blocklist PhishDestroy, further confirming its malicious intent. Despite the elevated risk level, the domain is now offline, which may indicate that it has been taken down by the registrar or the security community.

If users have visited krakendarknetbot.com, they should immediately change their Kraken account passwords and enable two-factor authentication (2FA) if not already activated. Users are also advised to monitor their accounts for any unauthorized activity and report any suspicious incidents to Kraken's support team. Additionally, it is recommended to review and update security software to ensure protection against similar threats in the future.

## EVIDENCE HASHES

## 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.
