## 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.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-24 20:28:12 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This report analyzes the domain krakenleague.xyz, which is classified as an impersonation scam targeting the brand Kraken. The threat posed by this domain involves deceiving users into believing they are interacting with a legitimate Kraken platform, potentially leading to credential theft or financial fraud through a fake login or service portal.

Technical evidence indicates low community trust, with only 3 out of 95 VirusTotal vendors flagging the domain as malicious. The domain was registered on 2026-04-25 through Hosting Concepts B.V. d/b/a Registrar.eu, hosted on IP address 216.24.57.9 in the United States under AS397273 Render. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services / WE1, and nameservers are marek.ns.cloudflare.com and tani.ns.cloudflare.com. One blocklist has flagged this domain.

Currently, the site is down or offline, which reduces immediate user risk. However, the risk level remains moderate due to its recent creation and impersonation of a known brand. Users should be advised to avoid any future access attempts to this domain.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260624-C310ED
TLS cert SHA-256:      733072c83457723710adb4e710e0e5937df88c5a7d67fc1b78775fe5a4ad7040

## 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.
