Network Security Intelligence Registrar context
Registrar contextTrustname
Stored registration data identifies Trustname / Fewmoretaps OÜ (IANA 4318) as the registrar. PhishDestroy maintains a separate registrar investigation; that material is contextual and is not an independent detection for this domain.
bitrex.digital is an impersonation phishing page that presents itself as BITREX, with the homepage titled "Home — BITREX". It targets cryptocurrency users who search for or are sent to what looks like a legitimate trading brand. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-09-05. As of 2026-10-19 the site was still online and serving its content.
How the scam works
Impersonation sites like this copy the name and look of a trading service so visitors trust it with sign-in details and money. A typical BITREX-branded page asks you to register or log in and then encourages a deposit. Any credentials you type go straight to the operators, who can reuse them on the real service or on other accounts that share the same password. Any crypto you send to the page's deposit addresses goes to the scammers and cannot be recovered.
Evidence
Five of 92 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain as of 2026-10-19: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft and SOCRadar. That is a small share, so many browsers and security tools may still let the page load without a warning. The domain appears in four AlienVault OTX threat pulses, which shows other researchers have tracked it independently. PhishDestroy is the only blocklist in our coverage that lists it.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-05-17 through Fewmoretaps OU, which trades as Trustname.com. It went about 111 days before PhishDestroy detected it, a long quiet period that gave the page time to collect visitors before anyone flagged it. It is hosted in Germany on the Datacamp Limited network.
What to do
Do not log in to or deposit on bitrex.digital. If you entered a password there, change it at once on every account that uses it and turn on app-based two-factor authentication. Contact the genuine platform you thought you were using so it can secure your account. If you sent funds, record the transaction IDs and the deposit addresses and report them to your exchange and to the police; ignore anyone who offers to recover the money for a fee. Defenders should block the domain at DNS and the web proxy and add the five vendor detections to their phishing watchlists.

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 bitrex.digital)
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
