bioworldmerchshop.shop is an impersonation phishing page that poses as the official wholesale storefront of Bioworld Merchandising, a licensed apparel and accessories brand. It targets shoppers and small retailers looking to buy branded merchandise in bulk. PhishDestroy first detected it on 2026-10-16. As of 2026-10-19 the site was still online and serving its content.
How the scam works
The page presents itself as "Official Wholesale Site | Bioworld Merchandising" to borrow the brand's credibility and make it look like a legitimate trade channel. Fake shops like this typically list discounted wholesale stock, push visitors to register an account, and collect payment details, billing addresses and contact information at checkout. Victims usually lose the money paid for goods that never arrive. Card data and personal details entered on the site can also be reused for fraud or follow-up phishing.
Evidence
urlscan.io rates the site malicious and specifically flags it as a fake shop. On VirusTotal, 6 of 92 engines detect it: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Fortinet, Gridinsoft, LevelBlue and Netcraft, as of 2026-10-16. That is a modest detection count, so many security tools may not yet warn visitors. Spamhaus DBL lists the domain as spam, it appears in 4 AlienVault OTX pulses, and it is on the PhishDestroy blocklist.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-05-21 through Dynadot Inc., months before it was detected. It resolves to 23.252.79.135 on the Malakmadze Web LLC network in Georgia (GE). The site uses a TLS certificate from Let's Encrypt (YE1), so the padlock in the browser says nothing about whether the shop is genuine.
What to do
If you placed an order or entered card details, contact your bank or card issuer right away to block the card and dispute the charge. If you created an account with a password you use elsewhere, change it everywhere it was reused, and watch for phishing emails or texts that mention your order. Buy Bioworld products only through channels you can verify independently through the brand itself. Defenders should block the domain and its IP at DNS, proxy and email gateways, and add it to fraud and brand-protection watchlists. Brand owners and payment processors can report the site to support its takedown.

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 bioworldmerchshop.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
