HIGH

The domain pimcoai.net impersonated legitimate services as part of a phishing scheme. With a VirusTotal score of 16/95, it was identified as a high-risk domain. This indicates a considerable level of malicious activity associated with it, warranting immediate attention. PhishDestroy actively reported the domain and took necessary actions to prevent further exploitation.

Registered just three days ago through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com, pimcoai.net utilized an IP address of 172.67.145.105 and appeared to engage in deceptive practices.

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 →
