bgactive.shop poses as a Body Glove store, using the page title "Wetsuits, Swim Gear, & Surf Apparel | Body Glove" to pass as the surf and swimwear brand. PhishDestroy classifies it as an e-commerce scam: a fake online shop aimed at people buying wetsuits and beachwear online. We first flagged it on 2026-10-16, and as of 2026-10-19 the site was still up and serving its storefront.
How the scam works
Fake shops like this copy a real brand's name, product range and look, then attract buyers with prices that undercut legitimate retailers. The shopper fills a cart, enters a shipping address and pays by card or another method at checkout. Typically nothing arrives, or a cheap item unrelated to the order shows up. The victim loses the purchase money, and the name, address, phone number and card details typed into checkout end up with the operators, who can reuse them for further fraud.
Evidence
urlscan.io rated the site malicious and specifically flagged it as a fake shop, which matches our classification. VirusTotal coverage is thin: on 2026-10-19 only 3 of 92 engines flagged it, namely Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft and Netcraft. A clean result from most engines therefore says little about this site's safety. The domain also appears in 2 AlienVault OTX threat pulses and on the PhishDestroy blocklist.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered through Dynadot Inc. on 2026-05-25, about 144 days before we detected it. That gap suggests the domain was registered well in advance rather than for a single quick campaign. It resolves to 195.96.130.233 on the Malakmadze Web LLC network in the United States. The free Let's Encrypt certificate gives the site a padlock icon, but that only means the connection is encrypted and does not prove the shop is legitimate.
What to do
If you paid on bgactive.shop, contact your card issuer or payment provider right away, report the transaction as fraud and request a chargeback, then ask for a replacement card. Watch your statements for unfamiliar charges in the coming weeks. If you created an account, change that password anywhere else you reused it, and treat follow-up emails or texts about your "order" as phishing. Buy Body Glove gear only through the brand's official site or authorized retailers. Security teams should block the domain and its IP, and report it to the brand and to payment processors so merchant accounts tied to it can be shut down.

Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.
RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.

After a phishing incident
Recommendations & Advice for Victims
Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.
What should I do immediately?
Urgent
Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.
Change all passwords — email, exchange accounts, anything that shares the same password
Enable 2FA using an authenticator app (not SMS). Disable SMS-based recovery
Freeze cards if you entered banking details on the phishing site
What information should I collect for my report?
FBI guidelines
Keep original emails, receipts, messages and screenshots in a secure place. A factual timeline helps the receiving authority understand what happened. IC3 evidence guidance ↗
Payment records — if you paid, save the receipt, amount, date, payment provider and recipient details.
Exact dates & times — of each transaction and first contact with scammer
Screenshots — scam website, chat messages, emails, wallet transactions, social media
All URLs & domains used by the scammer (including bgactive.shop)
Communications — emails, texts, phone numbers, usernames the scammer used
Even if you don't have all details — file a report anyway. Partial information still helps investigations.
Where should I report the scam?
FBI IC3 — Internet Crime Complaint Center (US federal reporting)
Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
Local police — creates an official record, even if they can't act immediately
A report is not a guarantee of recovery or investigation, but prompt, accurate transaction data can help authorities and service providers trace the incident.
How do phishing scams typically work?
Fake websites — pixel-perfect clones of legitimate sites with slightly altered domains
Pig butchering — trust built over weeks via Telegram/WhatsApp/dating apps, then money stolen
Recovery scams — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
AI-powered scams — deepfakes, automated phishing, and AI-generated sites making fraud harder to detect
How can I protect myself in the future?
Bookmark official sites — never click links from emails, DMs, or ads
Verify domains — check on PhishDestroy before interacting. Check HTTPS, spelling, domain age
"Too good to be true" = scam — guaranteed returns, celebrity endorsements, urgent deadlines
