This domain is flagged as an elevated-risk crypto exchange impersonation phishing site targeting European cryptocurrency users. Analysis indicates the infrastructure was specifically designed to mimic the legitimate Bitvavo platform, as evidenced by the page title 'Bitvavo — Where Europe trades crypto,' a direct replication of the authentic branding. The threat type aligns with credential harvesting and wallet-draining attacks, commonly deployed to compromise user accounts and siphon digital assets through fraudulent login portals or fake trading interfaces.
Infrastructure analysis reveals multiple high-confidence technical indicators. The domain was registered on June 16, 2026, through Squarespace Domains LLC, a registrar frequently leveraged for short-lived phishing campaigns. It resolves to the IP address 91.92.241.250, which has been associated with prior malicious activity. Detection engines on VirusTotal flagged the domain as malicious, with 8 out of 95 security vendors confirming its fraudulent nature. The domain appears on four security blocklists, including MetaMask, PhishDestroy, SEAL, and Hagezi, and is referenced in two AlienVault OTX threat intelligence pulses. Additionally, Gridinsoft assigned a trust score of 95/100, further corroborating its malicious classification. The site has since been taken offline, though historical DNS records and cached content may still pose residual risks.
Mitigation measures for this threat type require a multi-layered approach. Users who interacted with the domain should immediately revoke any active sessions, rotate credentials for associated accounts, and monitor transaction histories for unauthorized activity. Organizations should block the domain and its resolving IP (91.92.241.250) at the network perimeter and update endpoint protection rules to include the domain's hash signatures. For enhanced security, implement strict validation of SSL certificates and enforce multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all cryptocurrency-related logins. Given the domain's impersonation of a legitimate exchange, users should verify the authenticity of any platform by cross-referencing official URLs and checking for subtle discrepancies in branding or domain structure.

Domain Appeal
Contest this listing if false positive
Beware of recovery scammers! After being scammed, criminals may contact you again pretending to be "recovery agents," lawyers, or investigators who claim they can retrieve your lost funds — for a fee. This is a second scam. No legitimate service will ask for upfront payment to recover stolen crypto. Learn more about recovery fraud →

Recommendations & Advice for Victims
An estimated $51 billion flowed to illicit crypto wallets in 2024 (source). If you interacted with bitvavo-desktop.com — act now.
What should I do immediately?
Urgent
- Revoke token approvals — use revoke.cash to remove access granted to malicious smart contracts
- Move remaining funds to a brand-new wallet. The compromised wallet is no longer safe
- 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
According to the FBI, the most important details are transaction data:
- Cryptocurrency addresses — scammer's wallet (e.g.,
0x5856...35985) - Amount & crypto type — exact amount (e.g., 1.02345 ETH, 0.5 BTC, 500 USDT)
- Transaction ID (hash) — the unique blockchain transaction identifier
- 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
bitvavo-desktop.com) - 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)
- Europol — European cybercrime reporting (EU)
- Chainabuse — flag scam wallets across exchanges & platforms
- Your crypto exchange — contact Coinbase/Binance/Kraken support to freeze scammer's address
- Local police — creates an official record, even if they can't act immediately
The FBI recovered over $1 billion in crypto fraud in 2024 thanks to victim reports. Your report matters.
How do crypto scams typically work?
- Fake websites — pixel-perfect clones of legitimate sites with slightly altered domains
- Malicious approvals — "connect wallet" prompts that grant unlimited token spending to attackers
- Pig butchering — trust built over weeks via Telegram/WhatsApp/dating apps, then money stolen
- Recovery scams — victims targeted AGAIN by fake "recovery agents" demanding upfront fees. Always a scam
- Fake ads & airdrops — Google/social media ads and "free token" offers leading to wallet drainers
- AI-powered scams — deepfakes, automated phishing, and AI-generated sites making fraud harder to detect
How can I protect myself in the future?
- Use a hardware wallet (Ledger, Trezor). Never store large amounts in browser wallets
- Bookmark official sites — never click links from emails, DMs, or ads
- Read every approval — verify permissions before signing. Reject unlimited approvals
- Verify domains — check on PhishDestroy before interacting. Check HTTPS, spelling, domain age
- "Too good to be true" = scam — guaranteed returns, celebrity endorsements, urgent deadlines
How big is the crypto scam problem?
- $51 billion flowed to illicit crypto wallets in 2024 — CoinLedger
- Pig butchering losses grew 40% year over year, now the fastest-growing fraud type
- Only ~5% of victims report — your report helps shut down criminal networks
- FBI recovered $1B+ in 2024 thanks to victim reports — FBI.gov
