LOW
This domain, darkmatter-market[.]cyou, is under investigation as a generic phishing threat as of July 28, 2026. It was created on July 25, 2026, and remains active. The domain is registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, a registrar sometimes associated with high-risk or disposable domains. Its nameservers are adel.ns.cloudflare.com and javon.ns.cloudflare.com, and it resolves to the IP address 188.114.97.3, which is part of Cloudflare's hosting infrastructure.
VirusTotal scans from 91 vendors show zero detections, though an absence of detections does not confirm the domain is safe; it may simply indicate the threat is recent or not widely recognized. The domain appears on one security blocklist and is specifically blocked by PhishDestroy, a community-driven blocklist, lending credibility to the phishing classification. No additional page content, brand target, or scam type has been analyzed, so the exact nature of the phishing lure remains unknown. The domain's creation less than a week before the report date, combined with its appearance on a blocklist, suggests it may be used for credential harvesting or other deceptive campaigns.
Defenders should treat this domain as suspicious, monitor for any associated email traffic or login page captures, and block it at the network or email gateway level pending further investigation. Users who encounter this domain should avoid interacting with it and report it to relevant security teams. Continued monitoring for changes in DNS records, SSL certificate issuance, or new blocklist entries is recommended to assess evolving risk.

Shared-IP Neighbors · CDN-hosted
IP is behind a large CDN (3,430+ co-hosted phishing domains on same edge IP)
The origin is proxied via Cloudflare or a similar content-delivery network. Edge-IP neighbors aren't meaningful — hundreds of unrelated customers share each edge node. Origin IP discovery requires passive-DNS or CT cross-reference.

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 darkmatter-market.cyou — 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
darkmatter-market.cyou) - 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
