blackhole-prize[.]xyz

PhishDestroy identifies blackhole-prize.xyz as a tech support scam domain posing as a fake prize claim portal. This site lures victims with promises of large cash rewards in exchange for upfront payment of alleged processing fees or taxes, a classic hallmark of advance-fee fraud. Once users enter personal or payment details, the threat actor captures sensitive data or demands additional payments under fabricated pretenses. The domain’s design mimics legitimate sweepstakes platforms, leveraging urgency and reward psychology to bypass user skepticism. This domain was flagged across multiple threat intelligence platforms, including VirusTotal with 2 of 95 security vendors detecting malicious activity, and it appears on 1 known security blocklist. It was registered through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com and went live on April 08, 2026. The site resolves to IP address 104.21.89.85 and holds a valid SSL certificate issued by Let’s Encrypt, which malicious domains often exploit to appear trustworthy. It has also been blocked by ScamSniffer, reinforcing its active role in deception campaigns. If you have visited blackhole-prize.xyz, immediately cease all communication with the site and avoid entering any personal, financial, or login information. Do not click on any links or download files from the page. If you provided payment details, contact your bank or card issuer to report potential fraud and request a card replacement or transaction reversal. Run a full antivirus scan on your device and monitor financial accounts for unauthorized activity.
