The BIG clue is in the country code. "tk" is the internet country code for Tokelau, a territory of New Zealand, located in the South Pacific.

McAfee conducted a survey back in 2006, in which they claimed that out of 95% most trafficked websites, the "tk' domain was twice as likely to be used for scams such as phishing and spam.

"tr" is the internet country code for Turkey.
