kraenkr[.]com

The domain kraenkr.com was registered on June 05, 2025 through Gname.com Pte. Ltd. and currently resolves to the Cloudflare‑owned address 188.114.97.3, which is announced by AS13335 and geolocated to the United States. The authoritative name servers cecelia.ns.cloudflare.com and noah.ns.cloudflare.com confirm that the domain is hosted behind Cloudflare’s CDN, and HTTP/3 support is observed. An SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services (WE1) is present, indicating that TLS termination occurs at Cloudflare rather than on a dedicated backend server. Public analysis shows that the site presented a page titled “Coinstake” and was classified as a brand‑impersonation campaign targeting the Near brand. The Gridinsoft trust score of 0 / 100 reflects an extremely low reputation.

VirusTotal scans returned eight detections out of ninety‑five security vendors, and the domain appears on at least one external blocklist, specifically PhishDestroy. The overall risk level is marked as elevated, and the infrastructure status is listed as offline at the time of reporting. Evidence confirms the use of a legitimate Cloudflare certificate and CDN, which can mask the true origin of the malicious payload. However, the content of the landing page beyond the title has not been captured, leaving the exact phishing kit, credential‑collection method, or any secondary payload unknown.

The low Gridinsoft score and multiple vendor detections strongly suggest malicious intent, but the absence of a live endpoint limits real‑time verification of the threat vector. Defenders should block or sinkhole the IP address 188.114.97.3 for the domain kraenkr.com, add the domain to internal URL filtering lists, and monitor DNS queries for the associated Cloudflare name servers. Because the domain is already listed by PhishDestroy, existing third‑party blocklists will likely provide coverage, but manual inclusion ensures consistent protection.
