On 8 June 2026 the domain goolge[.]web[.]za was registered. The domain resolves to the IPv4 address 144.31.231.71. Within a week of creation the domain was added to a security blocklist and subsequently blocked by the PhishDestroy mitigation service. VirusTotal analysis shows that five of ninety‑one scanning engines returned a positive detection for malicious activity, indicating that the domain exhibits characteristics commonly associated with phishing infrastructure.
The presence on a public blocklist confirms that at least one external watchlist has flagged the domain as abusive. No additional intelligence such as SSL certificate details, HTTP response codes, page title, or Safe Browsing verdicts have been published for this host, and the current public records do not reveal the targeted brand or the specific phishing template employed. Consequently, the exact nature of the impersonation remains uncertain. Given the limited but concrete evidence, defenders should treat goolge[.]web[.]za as a high‑confidence malicious indicator.
Immediate actions include adding the domain and its resolved IP address 144.31.231.71 to DNS and proxy blocklists, updating intrusion‑prevention signatures to drop traffic to the host, and monitoring network logs for any outbound connections to the address. Continuous re‑query of VirusTotal and other reputation services is recommended to capture any new detections that may arise as additional scanners observe the site. Organizations employing outbound email filters should also ensure that any messages containing URLs pointing to goolge[.]web[.]za are quarantined or rejected. Because the domain is newly created and actively flagged, rapid containment is advised to prevent credential harvesting or other phishing‑related compromise.

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 goolge.web.za — 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
goolge.web.za) - 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
