bikehq.shop presents itself as a specialist retailer under the title "Premium Electric Bikes, eBikes, Parts, and Accessories | Bike". PhishDestroy classifies it as an e-commerce scam, a fake online shop aimed at people shopping for electric bikes and components. We first flagged it on 2026-10-16, and as of 2026-10-19 the site was still online and serving its storefront.
How the scam works
Fake bike shops exploit the high price of eBikes. They list well-known models at prices far below market to push buyers into ordering quickly. The checkout takes the payment, and sometimes full card details and a delivery address as well, but the bike never ships, or a cheap unrelated item arrives instead. Victims lose the purchase price and may face follow-up fraud on the card or personal details they entered.
Evidence
urlscan.io rated the site malicious and specifically flagged it as a fake shop, which matches our classification. VirusTotal tells a different story: none of its 92 engines detected the domain when checked on 2026-10-16. That gap is common for fresh fake stores, which do not host malware and so slip past signature-based scanners. Three AlienVault OTX pulses reference the domain, and among blocklists only PhishDestroy currently lists it.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered through Dynadot Inc. on 2026-04-17, roughly six months before we detected it. That lead time often lets a fake store build a convincing catalogue and gather some search visibility before it starts taking orders. The site resolves to 162.222.90.54, located in the US, on a network registered to Malakmadze Web LLC in Georgia. It uses a free Let's Encrypt certificate, so the padlock in the browser says nothing about whether the shop is legitimate.
What to do
If you paid bikehq.shop by card, contact your bank right away to dispute the charge and ask whether the card should be reissued. If you used PayPal or a similar service, open a non-delivery claim before the dispute window closes. Do not send further money if the shop asks for "customs" or "shipping" fees, and be wary of follow-up emails that use your order details. Security teams and payment providers should block the domain and flag related merchant activity, and anyone can report it to their national consumer fraud authority.
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 bikehq.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
