bhgear.shop presents itself as a sports retailer under the page title "Skate, Snow". It targets people shopping for skateboards, snowboards and related gear. PhishDestroy classifies it as an e-commerce scam and first flagged it on 2026-10-16. As of 2026-10-19 the site was still online and serving its storefront.
How the scam works
Fake shops like this copy the look of a real board-sports store and fill it with product photos and prices well below normal retail. They count on buyers who are chasing a seasonal deal and check out quickly. Victims pay by card or another method and then receive nothing, a cheap item unrelated to the order, or a tracking number that never updates. Each checkout also gives the operators the buyer's name, address, email, phone number and often card details, which can be reused for fraud or targeted phishing.
Evidence
Seven of 92 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain on 2026-10-19: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, Gridinsoft, Netcraft and SOCRadar. That is a minority of engines, but several of these vendors specialize in fraud and phishing detection. urlscan.io rated the site malicious and tagged it specifically as a fake shop, which matches our classification. The domain appears in four AlienVault OTX threat pulses and is listed on the PhishDestroy blocklist.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered through Dynadot Inc. on 2026-06-10, about four months before PhishDestroy detected it. A gap like that lets a storefront build up some history before it starts drawing complaints. The site is hosted in the US on the Malakmadze Web LLC network at 195.96.130.212.
What to do
If you ordered from bhgear.shop, contact your bank or card issuer now, report the charge as fraud and request a chargeback. Ask them to reissue the card if you typed its number on the site. If you created an account, change that password anywhere else you have used it. Expect phishing emails, texts or fake delivery notices that use the name and address you gave, and do not click links in them. Defenders and retailers should block the domain and its hosting IP, and report it to payment processors so they can cut off its ability to take payments.

After a phishing incident
Recomendações e orientações para as vítimas
Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.
O que devo fazer agora mesmo?
Urgente
Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.
Alterar todas as senhas — e-mail, contas do Exchange, qualquer coisa que use a mesma senha
Ativar a autenticação de dois fatores usando um aplicativo autenticador (não por SMS). Desative a recuperação por SMS
Cartões de congelamento se você inseriu dados bancários no site de phishing
Que informações devo coletar para o meu relatório?
Diretrizes do 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.
Datas e horários exatos — de cada transação e do primeiro contato com o golpista
Capturas de tela — sites fraudulentos, mensagens de bate-papo, e-mails, transações em carteiras digitais, redes sociais
Todas as URLs e domínios utilizado pelo golpista (incluindo bhgear.shop)
Comunicações — e-mails, mensagens de texto, números de telefone e nomes de usuário que o golpista utilizou
Mesmo que você não tenha todos os detalhes — registre uma ocorrência mesmo assim. Mesmo informações parciais ainda ajudam nas investigações.
A quem devo denunciar o golpe?
FBI IC3 — Centro de Denúncias de Crimes na Internet (sistema federal de denúncias dos EUA)
Europol — Relatórios sobre crimes cibernéticos na Europa (UE)
Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
Polícia local — cria um registro oficial, mesmo que não possam agir imediatamente
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?
Sites falsos — clones idênticos, até o último pixel, de sites legítimos, com domínios ligeiramente alterados
Abate de suínos — confiança construída ao longo de semanas pelo Telegram, WhatsApp e aplicativos de namoro; em seguida, o dinheiro foi roubado
Golpes relacionados à recuperação — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
Golpes baseados em IA — deepfakes, phishing automatizado e sites gerados por IA, o que torna a fraude mais difícil de detectar
Como posso me proteger no futuro?
Adicione os sites oficiais aos favoritos — nunca clique em links de e-mails, mensagens diretas ou anúncios
Verificar domínios — verificar PhishDestroy antes de interagir. Verifique se o site usa HTTPS, a ortografia e a idade do domínio
"Bom demais para ser verdade" = golpe — retornos garantidos, endossos de celebridades, prazos urgentes
