The domain lendingtree.ink poses as Lending Tree, a well-known financial services company, and is designed to deceive users into providing sensitive information. With a VirusTotal score of 2/95, this domain raises significant concerns about its intent to facilitate phishing attacks. Currently, it is labeled as active and has been detected by blocklist services, indicating its malicious nature.

Lendingtree.ink was registered just three days ago with NAMECHEAP INC, based in Iceland. This relatively new registration combined with its current IP address of 162.0.235.69 suggests that it may be utilizing shared hosting, often a tactic used by cybercriminals to mask their activities. The presence of a blocklist entry further emphasizes the potential risk associated with this domain.

As of now, lendingtree.ink remains operational. PhishDestroy has included this domain in its monitoring and reporting initiatives to mitigate any fraudulent activities. Immediate action is advised to protect potential victims from phishing attempts linked to this domain.

Evidence & External Reports

Were You Affected by This Site?

You are not alone and there is nothing to be ashamed of. Scammers are sophisticated criminals who exploit trust. Reporting your experience is the most powerful weapon against fraud — your report can prevent others from becoming victims and help law enforcement take action. Silence is the scammer's greatest advantage. Break it.

If you have interacted with this domain, entered personal information, or connected a cryptocurrency wallet — take immediate action. Below are resources to help you report the incident and protect yourself.

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 →
