CRITICAL THREAT — DO NOT VISIT
Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Impersonation
Targeted brand: Kraken

## DETECTION EVIDENCE
----------------------------------------------------------------
VirusTotal:      11/91 security vendors flagged this domain

## INFRASTRUCTURE
----------------------------------------------------------------
IP address:      45.13.237.246 (DE, Estenfeld)
ASN:             AS58087 Florian Kolb
Hosting org:     Datalix
Registrar:       NameSilo, LLC

!!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NameSilo !!!
NameSilo is a registrar documented by PhishDestroy as (1) publicly lying about
received abuse reports, (2) shielding a $20M+ Monero-theft operation (xmrwallet.com)
for 10 continuous years, and (3) retaliating against PhishDestroy by getting our
X/Twitter account @Phish_Destroy banned after we published the evidence.
Researchers/victims must ALWAYS CC compliance@icann.org on every abuse ticket —
NameSilo has a track record of later claiming reports were never received.

makarakafo.icu Fake Kraken Alert

Analysis indicates that the domain makarakafo.icu is actively hosting a site titled "KRAKEN" and is classified as a brand impersonation campaign targeting Kraken users. The domain resolves to the IPv4 address 45.13.237.246, which geolocates to Germany and is associated with the Datalix hosting provider. DNS resolution is served by ns1.dnsowl.com, ns2.dnsowl.com, and ns3.dnsowl.com, and the site presents a valid Let's Encrypt certificate (YR1) over HTTPS, returning HTTP 200 on request. Registration records show the domain was purchased through NameSilo, LLC. Intelligence feeds have reported the domain on three separate security blocklists and it is currently blocked by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. AlienVault OTX references the domain in two distinct threat pulses, reinforcing its relevance to ongoing investigations. VirusTotal scans have flagged the domain by 11 of 91 security vendors, suggesting a moderate detection rate among scanners. While the page content has not been publicly captured, the presence of the "KRAKEN" title and the explicit impersonation label confirm the intent to deceive Kraken customers. Defenders should add makarakafo.icu to URL filtering and DNS block lists, monitor network traffic for connections to 45.13.237.246, and consider sinkholing the IP range if feasible. Continuous re‑evaluation is advised, as the infrastructure remains active and may evolve.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       b957a36af1ffb7e36b68b78fc32355b3
TLS cert SHA-256:      0e26c95444f7aa21fc1f5b128908b1f421f3bcdffb638388caa3931ff226b5a5

## 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.
