dedisetup.com is a fake hosting storefront advertising "Dedicated Servers, Pay in Crypto, No KYC — from $49/mo." PhishDestroy classifies it as an impersonation phishing page aimed at privacy-minded buyers who want servers without identity checks and are willing to pay in cryptocurrency. We first flagged it on 2026-09-08. As of 2026-10-19 the site was still online and serving its content. The page title presents a dedicated-server hosting offer, while we classify the site as impersonation.
How the scam works
The pitch is built around three hooks: cheap dedicated hardware, crypto-only payment, and no KYC. Sites like this copy the look and language of a legitimate hosting provider, then ask the buyer to send crypto to activate a server. Because the payment is on-chain and the shop promises anonymity, victims have no card chargeback, no verified company to pursue, and often no working server in return. Anyone who signs up may also hand over an email and password that can be tried on other services.
Evidence
Six of 89 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain as of 2026-09-17: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, Gridinsoft and SOCRadar. That is a minority of engines, so many browsers and filters will not warn visitors yet. Three AlienVault OTX threat pulses reference the domain, which means other researchers are also tracking it. PhishDestroy is the only blocklist here that lists it.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered through Tucows Domains Inc. on 2026-09-05, just three days before we detected it. This rapid launch is typical of throwaway scam storefronts. The site sits behind Cloudflare, with the edge address resolving to Canada, so the real origin server is hidden. Its Let's Encrypt certificate gives it a browser padlock, but that only shows the connection is encrypted and says nothing about whether the seller is honest.
What to do
Do not send cryptocurrency to dedisetup.com for any server plan or renewal. If you already paid, keep the transaction hash and your order details, and report the receiving address to the exchange or wallet service you paid from, since crypto transfers cannot be reversed. If you created an account there, change that password everywhere you reused it and turn on two-factor authentication. Ignore any follow-up request for "setup" or "activation" fees. Defenders should block the domain at DNS and proxy level and report it to Cloudflare's abuse channel.

Cosa devo fare subito?
Urgente
Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.
Modifica tutte le password — e-mail, account Exchange, qualsiasi servizio che utilizzi la stessa password
Abilita l'autenticazione a due fattori (2FA) utilizzando un'app di autenticazione (non via SMS). Disattiva il recupero tramite SMS
Carte congelate se hai inserito i tuoi dati bancari sul sito di phishing
Quali informazioni devo raccogliere per la mia relazione?
Linee guida dell'FBI
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.

A chi devo segnalare la truffa?
FBI IC3 — Internet Crime Complaint Center (sistema di segnalazione federale degli Stati Uniti)
Europol — Segnalazioni relative alla criminalità informatica in Europa (UE)
Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
Polizia locale — crea un documento ufficiale, anche se non è in grado di agire immediatamente
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?
Siti web fasulli — cloni perfetti, al pixel, di siti legittimi con domini leggermente modificati
Macellazione dei suini — fiducia conquistata nel corso di settimane tramite Telegram/WhatsApp/app di incontri, per poi rubare i soldi
Truffe legate al recupero dei fondi — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
Truffe basate sull'intelligenza artificiale — i deepfake, il phishing automatizzato e i siti generati dall’intelligenza artificiale rendono più difficile individuare le frodi
