vuby.it is a Google impersonation page detected by PhishDestroy on 2026-09-12. Risk: critical (88/100). Registrar: Netsons S.r.l. Status: Last known active. Hosting: Netsons s.r.l. VirusTotal: 5/91 engines flag it. Do not enter credentials or connect a wallet.
vuby.it is classified by PhishDestroy as an impersonation phishing page. PhishDestroy first saw it on 2026-09-12. The page title presents it as the personal site of Valter Bernardini, while our classification places it among impersonation threats. As of 2026-10-19 the site was still online and its content now redirects elsewhere, so a visitor may land somewhere other than the page they expected.
How the scam works
Impersonation pages borrow the look or identity of a person, brand or service people already trust. That borrowed credibility lowers the visitor's guard before the page asks for something: login details, contact information, payment or a click through to another destination. Here the page presents itself as an Italian personal website. Because the content now redirects, the destination is what matters. A familiar-looking address can hand the visitor to a page built to collect credentials or other sensitive data.
Evidence
On 2026-09-25, 5 of 91 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, PhishFort and SOCRadar. That is a minority verdict, but PhishFort focuses on phishing and brand abuse, so its flag carries weight for an impersonation case. The domain also appears in 4 AlienVault OTX threat pulses, which means other analysts have independently linked it to suspicious activity. PhishDestroy is the only blocklist currently listing it.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2016-09-29, almost ten years before it was detected. An aged domain like this is either long-held or a once-legitimate name that has since been repurposed. Older names also tend to slip past filters that distrust newly created domains. It is registered through Netsons S.r.l. and hosted on the Netsons s.r.l. network in Italy, so the whole setup sits with a single Italian provider.
What to do
If you entered a username, password or email on this site or wherever it redirected you, change that password right away. Change it on every other service where you reused it, and turn on two-factor authentication. If you shared card or banking details, contact your bank and watch your statements for unfamiliar charges. Be wary of follow-up messages that cite your visit or use the Valter Bernardini name. Security teams should block the domain and its redirect chain at the proxy and DNS level, check logs for past visits, and report abuse to the hosting provider.
No. PhishDestroy classifies vuby.it as a Google impersonation page (risk: critical, 88/100); it was first detected on 2026-09-12. VirusTotal: 5/91 engines flag it. Treat the site as unsafe.
Is vuby.it safe to connect a wallet?
No. Do not connect a wallet, sign messages or approve tokens on vuby.it. Phishing sites ask for approvals (approve, setApprovalForAll, Permit2) that let the operator move your assets, and a confirmed transaction cannot be reversed.
What should I do if I used vuby.it?
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.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.

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 vuby.it)
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
