bicicrew.shop is a fraudulent storefront calling itself La Bicicletta, a "premier shop for road and gravel cycling." It targets cyclists shopping online for bikes, frames, components and apparel. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-10-16. As of 2026-10-19 the site is still online and serving its shop pages.
How the scam works
The site looks like a specialist cycling retailer, with a polished catalogue and prices low enough to undercut legitimate dealers on expensive road and gravel gear. Shoppers fill a cart and hand over card details, personal information and a delivery address at checkout. Shops of this kind typically take the payment and then ship nothing, or send a cheap item unrelated to the order. The card data and address entered can also be reused for further fraud. Victims lose the purchase amount and are exposed to card misuse.
Evidence
Ten of 92 VirusTotal engines flag the domain as of 2026-10-19, including BitDefender, ESET, G-Data, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, CyRadar and Gridinsoft. Several of these are mainstream consumer antivirus vendors, so some visitors may already see a warning. urlscan.io rates the site malicious and specifically identifies it as a fake shop, which matches our classification. The domain also appears in four AlienVault OTX threat pulses, so other researchers have tracked it independently.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered through Dynadot Inc. on 2026-05-20, almost five months before PhishDestroy detected it. That gap leaves room for the shop to have taken orders unnoticed for some time. It is hosted in Russia on the Malakmadze Web LLC network, an unusual base for a store presenting itself as an Italian-styled cycling brand. The padlock in the browser comes from a free Let's Encrypt certificate. It only means the connection is encrypted and says nothing about whether the seller is genuine.
What to do
If you paid on bicicrew.shop, contact your bank or card issuer now to dispute the charge and request a chargeback. Ask them to reissue the card. Watch your statements for unfamiliar transactions, and treat any follow-up emails about "shipping fees" or "customs charges" as part of the scam. Report the shop to your national consumer-fraud authority. Security teams should block the domain and its hosting IP at the proxy and DNS layers. They should also use the La Bicicletta branding and the cycling-store theme to hunt for sibling domains from the same operation.

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 bicicrew.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
