benoaswimshop.shop is a fake online shop that presents itself as "Benoa Swimwear | Benoa Swim" to catch people looking for swimwear from that label. PhishDestroy classifies it as an e-commerce scam and first detected it on 2026-10-13. As of 2026-10-19 the site is still online and its storefront is fully live, so shoppers can still land on it and place orders.
How the scam works
The site borrows the Benoa Swim name and the look of a normal swimwear boutique, then draws buyers in with a catalogue and checkout that seem routine. Shops like this usually push discounts or limited-stock pressure to get a quick purchase. The money is taken at checkout, and the order then never ships, or a cheap item that does not match the listing arrives. Victims lose what they paid and expose their card details, name, address and email to the operators, who can reuse that information for further fraud or phishing.
Evidence
On 2026-10-17, ten of 92 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain, including BitDefender, CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data and Gridinsoft. These are several unrelated vendors reaching the same conclusion. urlscan.io rates the site malicious and specifically marks it as a fake shop, which matches our classification. The domain also appears in three AlienVault OTX threat pulses and on the PhishDestroy blocklist.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered through Dynadot Inc. on 2026-06-05, roughly four months before PhishDestroy picked it up. That gap means the storefront may have been taking orders for some time before it was flagged. It is hosted on the Malakmadze Web LLC network in Georgia, far from the swimwear brand it trades on. The free Let's Encrypt certificate only provides the padlock icon and says nothing about whether the shop is genuine.
What to do
If you ordered from this site, contact your bank or card issuer now to dispute the charge as non-delivery or fraud. Ask them to block the card if you entered its full details. If you paid through a payment service, open a buyer-protection claim there and keep your order confirmation and any emails as evidence. Expect follow-up phishing to the email address you used, and change your password anywhere you reused the one created for this shop. Defenders and payment providers should block the domain, flag transactions linked to it, and report it to the registrar and hosting network for takedown.

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.
