PhishDestroy’s intake on 2026-10-22 added shopyessnowboards.shop to its internal blocklist after an AI assessment identified the site as impersonating #YES Snowboards and offering deep discounts on a domain that does not belong to the brand. The recorded page title "#YES Snowboards | #YES Snowboards" and an HTTP 200 response were observed on the same date, supporting the fake‑store concern.
How the scam works
Fake online stores copy a well‑known brand’s name and visual identity, list products at unrealistically low prices, and lure shoppers into providing payment details or personal information. Collected data can be used for fraudulent purchases, credential theft, or resale of payment credentials.
Evidence
VirusTotal scanned the domain on 2026-10-05 with 92 engines and reported zero detections. Google Safe Browsing and OTX showed no warnings as of 2026-10-22, with OTX reporting zero pulses. urlscan’s machine‑learning engine flagged the site as malicious with a score of 100, categorising it as phishing and a fake shop on 2026-10-22. PhishDestroy’s internal blocklist marked the domain as malicious on 2026-10-22, while external blocklists returned zero hits at that time.
Infrastructure
The recorded IP was 188.244.119.61, which the hosting observation listed as belonging to Malakmadze Web LLC in Georgia, and the domain used Cloudflare nameservers amos.ns.cloudflare.com and millie.ns.cloudflare.com. The site presented a Let’s Encrypt TLS 1.3 certificate for shopyessnowboards.shop valid until 2026-12-21, and the domain had been registered for 217 days at the time of observation.
What to do
Visitors should avoid entering any payment or personal information on the site and change any passwords that may have been entered. Security teams should block shopyessnowboards.shop at the perimeter, monitor for connections to the recorded host, and treat any credential submissions as compromised; no wallet‑related remediation is required.

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 shopyessnowboards.shop)
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
