No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2025-02-12 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-29 03:18:42 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-29 01:28:24 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-01 12:20:36 UTC Current status: ACTIVE — cloaked behind HTTP 666 to evade scanners ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f10f4-4678-75ae-a037-59583fc7cae8/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/63a81f39-d8a6-485f-958a-fe1bb9fa5b29 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/ku2.me crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.ku2.me Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=ku2.me AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/ku2.me URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/ku2.me/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-29 03:25:58 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain ku2.me is currently flagged as an active credential harvesting URL shortener, a specific subset of phishing infrastructure designed to obfuscate malicious landing pages. Analysis indicates the domain is operational and serving content under the page title 'ku2.me — Shorten your links,' which aligns with known patterns of phishing campaigns leveraging URL shortening services to evade detection and trick users into divulging sensitive information. No direct brand impersonation has been confirmed at this time, though the infrastructure is consistent with credential theft operations targeting enterprise and consumer accounts. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on February 12, 2025, through GoDaddy.com, LLC, and currently resolves to the IP address 66.33.60.35. Security telemetry shows the domain is flagged by 17 of 95 vendors on VirusTotal, with additional detections recorded in one AlienVault OTX threat intelligence pulse. The domain appears on one security blocklist and is actively blocked by the OISD filtering service. A Let's Encrypt SSL certificate is present, providing a superficial layer of legitimacy while the underlying infrastructure remains associated with malicious activity. The recent creation date and rapid inclusion in threat intelligence feeds suggest a coordinated deployment within a broader phishing campaign. Current status indicates the domain remains active and poses an elevated risk to users and organizations. Immediate containment measures are recommended, including blocking the domain and its resolving IP at the network perimeter. Security teams should monitor for inbound or outbound connections to 66.33.60.35 and ku2.me, particularly in logs associated with email, web proxies, or endpoint detection systems. User awareness training should emphasize the risks of interacting with URL shorteners from untrusted sources, and multi-factor authentication should be enforced to mitigate potential credential compromise. Further investigation into associated infrastructure is advised to identify related domains or IP ranges linked to this campaign. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260629-A97DF6 Favicon MD5: 1d61a9421a6a216ab3d340c42084becd ## 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/ku2.me/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=ku2.me 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.
