No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-05-09 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-09 11:15:45 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-05-09 08:17:47 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-05-11 17:10:08 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e0bcc-a09e-7027-9941-44abc52420f6/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/1d77ad4d-a468-4af6-b73a-86965247de2e Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/krakenlighter.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.krakenlighter.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=krakenlighter.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/krakenlighter.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/krakenlighter.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-09 11:16:45 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies krakenlighter.com as an active brand impersonation domain targeting Kraken users. This malicious domain mimics the official Kraken cryptocurrency exchange branding to deceive victims into entering sensitive credentials or cryptocurrency wallet information. The site appears designed to harvest login details or initiate unauthorized transactions, aligning with tactics commonly associated with crypto drainer toolkits. This domain resolves to IP 38.14.63.108 and was registered on February 28, 2026 through GMO Internet, Inc. using a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate. As of the latest scan, VirusTotal reports 0 out of 95 detection engines flagged the domain, indicating it remains largely undetected by mainstream security tools. No evidence of a known crypto drainer kit (e.g., Inferno, Angel Drainer) has been confirmed at this stage, though the behavioral pattern strongly suggests impersonation with theft intent. At present, krakenlighter.com remains active and under investigation. There are no confirmed entries in public blocklists or Google Safe Browsing (GSB) at this time. The domain poses a moderate risk due to its recent creation, low detection rate, and direct targeting of a major crypto brand. Users are advised to avoid accessing the site, report it to their security teams or browser vendors, and verify all cryptocurrency-related domains against official Kraken domains (kraken.com). While risk is classified as 'under_investigation', immediate caution is warranted given the potential for credential theft or fund loss. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260509-BE56D8 Favicon MD5: 08c8b8a63834848c41476238b24cbb89 TLS cert SHA-256: 8b2b11a76f90902b70f5d80e0072347c2c7c5ddb519e0c21df5b910090a42ae5 ## 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. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/krakenlighter.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=krakenlighter.com 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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
