The latest stored availability evidence still shows the domain reachable; 10 days has elapsed since the first outgoing report.

“THE GAME NEVER STOPPED — $GME”
The domain thegameneverstopped.com is currently classified as a generic phishing site and remains active as of the report date, August 04, 2026. Intelligence indicates that the domain has been added to the PhishDestroy blocklist and is listed on one additional security blocklist. VirusTotal records show that the site was submitted for analysis to 91 AV engines, none of which raised a detection; the report explicitly notes that the lack of detections does not constitute evidence of benign intent.
The risk level is marked as under investigation, reflecting insufficient public telemetry to assign a definitive severity. No further infrastructure details such as registrar, hosting IP, ASN, or SSL configuration have been disclosed in the available data set, leaving the underlying hosting environment uncharacterized. Consequently, defenders should treat the domain as potentially malicious until additional evidence clarifies its behavior.
Recommended actions include enforcing outbound filtering rules that block connections to the domain, incorporating the domain into existing phishing‑specific blocklists, and monitoring network logs for any attempted HTTP or HTTPS requests to the host. Security teams should also consider re‑scanning the site with additional sandbox or URL‑reputation services to capture any delayed payload delivery, and maintain vigilance for future detection updates from VirusTotal or other threat‑intel feeds. Continuous review of blocklist status and any emerging indicators of compromise is advised to adjust defensive posture promptly.

Recommendations & Advice for Victims
An estimated $51 billion flowed to illicit crypto wallets in 2024 (source). If you interacted with thegameneverstopped.com — 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
thegameneverstopped.com) - 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 — notify its fraud team immediately; it may be able to preserve records or restrict funds held on its platform
- 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 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 — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
- 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
