Registrar: NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!! NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-real https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-verdict Nameservers: newt.ns.cloudflare.com, sneh.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-06-24 Expires: 2027-06-24 Page title: KRAKEN Market - каталог смартфонов, ноутбуков и техники HTTP response: 200 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Google Trust Services / WE1 Expires: 2026-09-22 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: ea0473dd9250647f1b3a56d083e05b8a84907f52c074087d35023c7782e8cf89 ## 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: 2026-06-24 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-28 13:18:57 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-06-29 16:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-28 18:18:19 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f0df2-fbb8-70a7-8ab7-0cd47180d215/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/krakentecho.net crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.krakentecho.net Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=krakentecho.net AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/krakentecho.net URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/krakentecho.net/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-28 18:04:46 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain poses a high-risk brand-impersonation threat targeting users of the cryptocurrency exchange Kraken. The site presents a page titled KRAKEN Market - catalog of smartphones, laptops, and electronics, misleading visitors by mimicking the Kraken brand to collect sensitive information or deploy malicious scripts. The domain is still active and unrated by trust systems, with a Gridinsoft trust score of 0 out of 100, indicating no credible safety signals. Technical indicators confirm the threat: the domain was created on June 24, 2026, and resolves to IP address 172.67.212.228, hosted via Cloudflare. Analysis of VirusTotal data shows that 1 out of 95 security vendors flag this domain as malicious, with PhishDestroy blocking it on their blocklist. Registration was handled by NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar commonly associated with low-effort or high-risk domain registrations. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services, which does not imply trustworthiness but rather basic encryption. Anyone who visited this domain should immediately clear browser cache, cookies, and stored credentials. If sensitive information such as passwords or cryptocurrency wallet keys was entered, change those credentials on the legitimate Kraken platform and enable two-factor authentication. Run a full antivirus scan on the device used. Monitor financial accounts for unauthorized activity and consider reporting the domain to relevant threat intelligence platforms for further analysis. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 2d7cd7d038c52a63ef33345d319f7117 TLS cert SHA-256: ea0473dd9250647f1b3a56d083e05b8a84907f52c074087d35023c7782e8cf89 ## 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/krakentecho.net/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=krakentecho.net 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.
