The domain stayconnected[.]northstate[.]net was registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC. DNS resolution is delegated to dns1.nstel.com and dns2.nstel.com, indicating the use of the NSTEL hosting provider’s name‑server infrastructure. An HTTP request to the root URL returns a 301 permanent redirect, a response pattern frequently observed in phishing campaigns that aim to hide the final landing page behind a redirection step. The domain appears on a single security blocklist and is actively blocked by the PhishDestroy service, confirming that at least one anti‑phishing repository has classified the host as malicious. VirusTotal records show that the domain was scanned by 91 antivirus and URL‑reputation engines, none of which reported a detection at the time of analysis.

The absence of detections does not constitute evidence of benign behavior; it merely reflects the current coverage of the scanning engines. No additional data such as page title, SSL certificate details, hosting IP, or threat‑actor attribution is available in the supplied intelligence, leaving the exact content and targeted brand of the site unknown. Consequently, the precise phishing kit or victim‑lure strategy cannot be confirmed. Given the observed redirection, the registrar information, and the blocklist inclusion, the infrastructure aligns with typical generic phishing operations.

Defenders should continue to monitor stayconnected[.]northstate[.]net for changes in HTTP response codes, DNS records, and any emergence of detections on additional threat‑intel platforms. Adding the domain to local deny lists, enforcing URL filtering, and sharing the indicator with upstream threat‑sharing communities will reduce exposure. Periodic re‑scanning on VirusTotal or comparable services is recommended to capture any future payload updates.

“Another fake hacking scam claiming that, "І gоt ɑccеsѕ tо ẏour ɡаԁɡetѕ". Yet, no proof and nothing specific about what devices. This is purposely vague because the sender is phishing. What they claim to have does not exist. Do not be fooled.”

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 →

Recommendations & Advice for Victims

An estimated $51 billion flowed to illicit crypto wallets in 2024 (source). If you interacted with stayconnected.northstate.net — 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 stayconnected.northstate.net)
  • 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
