Registrar contextTrustname
Stored registration data identifies Trustname / Fewmoretaps OÜ (IANA 4318) as the registrar. PhishDestroy maintains a separate registrar investigation; that material is contextual and is not an independent detection for this domain.
bufalosswildwings.com is an impersonation phishing page posing as Buffalo Wild Wings, the US sports-bar chain. It used the title "Buffalo Wild Wings | Wings. Beer. Sports" to look like the official site. The domain misspells the brand with a single "f" and an extra "ss", a typo built to catch people who mistype the name or skim a link. PhishDestroy first saw it on 2026-09-05. The site has been offline since 2026-09-27 and still served no threatening content when last checked on 2026-10-19.
How the scam works
Restaurant-brand impersonation usually trades on loyalty perks, free-wing offers, gift cards or online ordering. A copied homepage under a near-identical name convinces visitors they are on the real chain's site. From there, victims are pushed to sign in, claim a reward or pay for an order. Whatever they type, whether account passwords, personal details or card numbers, goes to the operator instead of Buffalo Wild Wings.
Evidence
On 2026-09-18, VirusTotal showed 4 of 89 engines flagging the domain: CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft and SOCRadar. That count is modest, so many browsers and filters would not have warned visitors. The domain also appears in 4 AlienVault OTX threat pulses, which means other researchers have tracked it independently. PhishDestroy lists it on our blocklist.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-05-29 through Fewmoretaps OU d/b/a Trustname.com, roughly three months before we detected it. A gap like that is typical of names held in reserve before a campaign starts. Traffic ran through Cloudflare, with the edge address located in Canada, so the real origin server stays hidden behind the proxy. The Let's Encrypt certificate gave the page a padlock, which only shows the connection was encrypted, not that the site was genuine.
What to do
If you signed in on this site, change your Buffalo Wild Wings password right away. Change it anywhere else you reused it, and turn on two-step verification where you can. If you entered card details, call your bank to cancel the card and dispute any charges you don't recognize. Watch your loyalty account for points or gift-card balances you didn't redeem. Defenders should block the domain and look for similar misspellings of the brand in mail and DNS logs.
