PhishDestroy added tearns.online to its blocklist on 2026-10-23 after an admin report noted the domain was 43 days old and displayed promotional text about Namecheap auctions. The recorded page excerpt described a newly registered domain inviting visitors to discover auction listings.
How the scam works
The listing reflects a generic risk where freshly registered domains are used to host simple promotional pages that can later be repurposed for phishing, fraud or malware distribution. Such pages have no established reputation and can be switched to malicious content at any time.
Evidence
VirusTotal scanned the domain on 2026-09-26 and reported zero detections from 92 engines. Google Safe Browsing checked on 2026-10-23 and did not flag the site. urlscan.io scanned the URL on 2026-10-23; its engine verdict marked it malicious with a score of 74 while the overall verdict was non‑malicious. The domain appears on two external blocklists (MetaMask and SEAL) as of 2026-10-23 and has three OTX pulses referencing it.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-09-10 through NameCheap, Inc., with a client‑transfer‑prohibited status and an expiration of 2027-09-10. It resolved to IP 192.64.119.78, an address that was recorded as belonging to Namecheap in the United States (ASN 22612, Dallas). DNS records observed on 2026-09-26 included an A record to that IP, NS records at dns1.registrar-servers.com and dns2.registrar-servers.com, MX records pointing to registrar‑provided forwarders, and an SPF TXT record; port 80 was open and DNSSEC was not enabled.
What to do
Visitors should avoid entering credentials, wallet information or personal data on the site; if any such data was submitted, change passwords and monitor the affected accounts. Defenders should block the exact domain tearns.online, review logs for connections to 192.64.119.78, and note its presence on external blocklists while treating it as a potentially malicious resource.
No. PhishDestroy classifies tearns.online as a blocklisted domain (risk: high, 66/100); it was first detected on 2026-10-23. Treat the site as unsafe.
Is tearns.online safe to connect a wallet?

What should I do if I used tearns.online?
Change every password you entered there and turn on two-factor authentication. If you connected a wallet or signed something, revoke the approvals and move the remaining funds to a new wallet; never share your seed phrase. Step-by-step help: emergency guide.

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 tearns.online)
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
