kakaotalk[.]network

Analysis as of July 24, 2026 indicates that the domain kakaotalk.network is actively leveraged for generic phishing. The site was registered on February 21, 2026 through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited and is hosted behind Cloudflare (AS13335) with the IP address 211.183.223.11 located in the United States. DNS resolution uses the Cloudflare name servers justin.ns.cloudflare.com and margot.ns.cloudflare.com. The HTTPS service presents a certificate issued by Google Trust Services under the WE1 name, confirming a valid TLS chain, while the web server returns HTTP status 521, indicating that Cloudflare is unable to connect to the origin server.

Page title retrieved from the site reads “카카오”, suggesting an attempt to reference the Korean messaging service, although the content of the page has not been examined. Security intelligence shows the domain appears on three blocklists and is explicitly blocked by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. VirusTotal scans reported two detections out of ninety‑three vendors, reinforcing the malicious classification. Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0 out of 100, and automated fingerprinting identified Cloudflare and HTTP/3 as the underlying technologies.

The domain remains listed as active. While the limited public data confirms the phishing intent, details such as the specific phishing kit, credential harvesting page, or victim targeting are not yet disclosed. Defenders should block the domain at network perimeter, update URL filtering lists with the known blocklist entries, and monitor for any outbound connections to the associated IP. Continuous scanning with multi‑engine services is advised to capture any changes in detection counts or additional malicious payloads.
