bhalfmoongear.shop is a fake online shop dressed up as a Halfmoon-branded store for yoga mats, meditation cushions and recovery equipment. It is aimed at yoga and wellness shoppers who search for discounted gear and land on a polished-looking storefront. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-10-16. As of 2026-10-19 the site is still online and serving its shop content.
How the scam works
The page title, "b, mat & movement, meditation & recovery essentials | b, halfmoon", borrows the Halfmoon name and its product categories so the store looks like an official outlet or authorized reseller. Fake shops of this kind usually list products at prices well below retail to push quick checkouts. The buyer pays by card or another online method and then receives nothing, a cheap substitute, or a tracking number that never resolves. Card details entered at checkout can also be reused for further fraudulent charges.
Evidence
urlscan.io rates the site malicious and specifically identifies it as a fake shop, which is the most direct confirmation of the classification. On VirusTotal, 6 of 92 engines flag the domain as of 2026-10-16: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, LevelBlue and Netcraft. That count is modest, so many browsers and security tools may not warn visitors yet. The domain also appears in 3 AlienVault OTX threat pulses, so other researchers have tied it to malicious activity.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered through Dynadot Inc. on 2026-05-22, almost five months before PhishDestroy detected it. That gap leaves room for the store to be indexed or advertised before anyone reports it. The site is hosted on the Malakmadze Web LLC network in Georgia, far from where a genuine Halfmoon retailer would normally run its storefront.
What to do
If you ordered from bhalfmoongear.shop, contact your bank or card issuer right away to dispute the charge and ask about a chargeback, and keep your order confirmation, emails and screenshots as proof. If you entered card details, ask your issuer to block or reissue the card and watch your statements for unfamiliar charges. If you created an account with a password you use elsewhere, change it on those other sites. Buy Halfmoon products only from the brand's own website or retailers it lists. Security teams should block the domain and the hosting address 46.245.239.159, and report the site to payment processors and consumer-protection authorities.

Accreditation and RAA context
Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations
For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.
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.
Saved certificate metadata. Certificate dates without a timezone are shown as stored. Transport encryption does not establish that the site is trustworthy.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.

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 bhalfmoongear.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
