The authoritative name servers listed for the domain are ns-1457.awsdns-54.org, ns-1599.awsdns-07.co.uk, ns-304.awsdns-38.com, and an additional server not fully captured in the source data, all of which are part of Amazon’s DNS service, suggesting the hosting environment is on AWS infrastructure. Registration information reveals the domain was purchased through MarkMonitor Inc., a registrar commonly used by legitimate enterprises, which can lend a veneer of credibility to the malicious site. VirusTotal has processed the domain with 91 scanning engines, none of which generated a detection at the time of analysis; however, the absence of flags does not constitute evidence of safety, as many phishing sites evade automated signatures.
No public page title, SSL certificate details, IP address, or geographic attribution have been disclosed, leaving those attributes uncertain. Defenders should treat id[.]venmo[.]com as malicious, add it to network‑level blocklists, monitor DNS queries for the listed name servers, and consider employing URL‑filtering rules that intercept HTTP 302 responses from this domain. Continuous re‑assessment is advised, as the infrastructure could be altered or expanded, and additional detections may emerge from broader threat‑intel feeds.

Evidence & External Reports
“Over the course of a couple of months, I was guided by a person who went by Jazz. We met through a dating app Grindr, and he suggested we move our conversation to WhatsApp, which we did. This happened in Las Vegas, NV. He expressed a lot of interest in me, including sexual and romantic interest. This happened before he told me that he does crypto trading, and he would help me make some money by letting me know when a trend was coming up. We would trade together. He guided me step-by-step on how”

Recommendations & Advice for Victims
An estimated $51 billion flowed to illicit crypto wallets in 2024 (source). If you interacted with id.venmo.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
id.venmo.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
