FACEIT Credential Phishing — Listed on PhishDestroy
Stored PhishDestroy threat listing. VirusTotal analysis stored; no vendor detections were recorded at check time. Exercise extreme caution — do not enter credentials or personal information.
PhishDestroy’s intake AI assigned a strong phishing confidence score of 90 % to the domain and noted its recent registration (109 days) as part of the risk assessment. The prior assessment described the page as impersonating the FACEIT gaming platform and prompting visitors to scan a QR code to “verify” their account, a typical credential‑theft lure. The domain was first seen by PhishDestroy on 2026-10-23, returning HTTP 200 for the www sub‑domain and HTTP 404 for the apex on the same day.
How the scam works
In this type of credential‑phishing campaign the attacker creates a look‑alike site that claims the user must verify their account by scanning a QR code. The QR code usually encodes a link to a malicious login page or a token that, once entered, grants the attacker access to the victim’s legitimate account. Because the victim believes the request comes from the trusted brand, they may willingly disclose passwords or grant account permissions.
Evidence
VirusTotal scanned the domain on 2026-09-06 with 92 engines and reported zero detections. Google Safe Browsing checked the site on 2026-10-23 and did not flag it. OTX listed no pulses as of 2026-10-23. urlscan.io captured the page on 2026-10-23; its machine‑learning engines marked it malicious with a score of 98, while the overall verdict was non‑malicious. PhishDestroy’s internal blocklist includes the domain, whereas external blocklists returned no matches on the same date.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-07-06 through Hosting Concepts B.V. d/b/a Registrar.eu. Hosting records show the site served content from Cloudflare (network label CloudFLARENET‑EU, country GB) at IP addresses 188.114.96.3 and 188.114.97.3 (and corresponding IPv6). TLS was provided by Google Trust Services, valid from 2026-09-03 to 2026-12-02, and Cloudflare’s WAF was observed. No DNSSEC signatures were present.
What to do
Anyone who entered FACEIT credentials or scanned the QR code should change their FACEIT password immediately and enable two‑factor authentication. Organizations should block the domain and its IPs at the firewall, monitor DNS queries for the host, and review access logs for any connections on 2026-10-23. Security teams can add the domain to internal blocklists and share the indicator with threat‑intel partners.
No. PhishDestroy classifies face-it-check-trusting.com as a Steam impersonation page (risk: high, 45/100); it was first detected on 2026-10-23. Treat the site as unsafe.
Is face-it-check-trusting.com safe to connect a wallet?
No. Do not connect a wallet, sign messages or approve tokens on face-it-check-trusting.com. Phishing sites ask for approvals (approve, setApprovalForAll, Permit2) that let the operator move your assets, and a confirmed transaction cannot be reversed.
What should I do if I used face-it-check-trusting.com?
Change every password you entered there and turn on two-factor authentication. If you connected a wallet or signed something, revoke the approvals and move the remaining funds to a new wallet; never share your seed phrase. Step-by-step help: emergency guide.

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 face-it-check-trusting.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)
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
