earnplux.online is an impersonation phishing site that poses as a legitimate service to win the trust of crypto users and take their credentials or funds. PhishDestroy first detected it on 2026-09-18, one day after the domain was registered. As of 2026-10-19 the site was still online and serving content.
How the scam works
Visitors first see a page titled "Bot Verification," a familiar-looking checkpoint that makes the site seem routine and trustworthy before the real content loads. The page title shows a bot-check screen, while we classify the site as an impersonation phishing page. Impersonation pages of this kind copy the look of a known brand, then ask for login details, a seed phrase, a wallet connection or a payment. Anything entered goes straight to the operators. Victims can lose account access, wallet contents or money sent for fake fees.
Evidence
Six of 91 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain as of 2026-10-01: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Ermes, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft and SOCRadar. That is a small share, so many browsers and filters may still let the site through without a warning. The domain appears in four AlienVault OTX threat pulses, which means other researchers have tied it to malicious activity on their own. It is listed on the PhishDestroy blocklist.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-09-17 through HOSTINGER operations, UAB and was flagged the next day. That short gap fits a site set up for quick use rather than a lasting business. It is hosted at 198.251.84.236 on the FranTech Solutions network in Luxembourg. The certificate comes from Let's Encrypt, so the padlock in the address bar only means the connection is encrypted. It says nothing about who runs the site or whether it is honest.
What to do
If you entered a password on earnplux.online, change it right away on the real service and on any other account that uses the same password. Then turn on app-based two-factor authentication. If you typed a seed phrase or connected a wallet, move your funds to a new wallet created from a fresh phrase. Revoke any token approvals you granted, because a compromised phrase cannot be secured again. Do not pay any fee or deposit the site asks for. Security teams should block the domain and its hosting IP, check proxy and DNS logs for visits since 2026-09-18, and report it to the registrar and host so it can be taken down.
For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.
Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.
RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.
Saved certificate metadata. Certificate dates without a timezone are shown as stored. Transport encryption does not establish that the site is trustworthy.

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.

Raccomandazioni e consigli per le vittime
Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.
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.
Date e orari esatti — di ogni transazione e del primo contatto con il truffatore
Schermate — siti web truffaldini, messaggi in chat, e-mail, transazioni tramite portafoglio digitale, social media
Tutti gli URL e i domini utilizzato dal truffatore (tra cui earnplux.online)
Comunicazioni — e-mail, SMS, numeri di telefono, nomi utente utilizzati dal truffatore
Anche se non conosci tutti i dettagli — sporgere comunque denuncia. Anche le informazioni parziali sono comunque utili alle indagini.
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
Come posso proteggermi in futuro?
Aggiungi i siti ufficiali ai preferiti — Non cliccare mai sui link contenuti nelle e-mail, nei messaggi diretti o negli annunci pubblicitari
Verifica i domini — controllare PhishDestroy prima di interagire. Verifica l'HTTPS, l'ortografia e l'età del dominio
