The domain benadex[.]com is a recently registered phishing site that impersonates a cryptocurrency exchange. It currently has a VirusTotal detection score of 2 out of 95, indicating its malicious nature. The site's page title suggests it encourages users to buy cryptocurrency, further entrenching its deceptive character.

Beware of recovery scammers! After being scammed, criminals may contact you again pretending to be "recovery agents," lawyers, or investigators who claim they can retrieve your lost funds — for a fee. This is a second scam. No legitimate service will ask for upfront payment to recover stolen crypto. Learn more about recovery fraud →
