partridgeautosupply.com presented itself as "Partridge Auto Supply & Vehicle Auctions", a storefront for auto parts and vehicle auctions. PhishDestroy classifies it as an impersonation phishing page that targets people shopping for vehicles or parts online. We first saw it on 2026-09-05. It has been offline since 2026-09-15, and as of 2026-10-19 its domain no longer resolves.
How the scam works
Sites dressed up as auto suppliers and vehicle auction houses rely on listings priced to sell fast. A shopper is drawn into placing a bid or reserving a car, then asked to pay a deposit, the full price or a shipping and escrow fee. Payment is usually requested by bank transfer, cryptocurrency or another method that is hard to reverse. Once the money is sent, the vehicle or parts never arrive. Contact or account forms on such pages can also collect names, addresses, phone numbers and payment details for further fraud.
Evidence
Four of 89 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain on 2026-09-17: CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft and SOCRadar. That is a low count, but it means vendors with separate detection pipelines reached the same verdict on a newly registered site. The domain also appears in nine AlienVault OTX threat pulses, which shows other researchers were tracking it. It is listed on the PhishDestroy blocklist.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-08-16 through NameCheap, Inc. and appeared in our detection 20 days later. It was then dead within about a month of registration. That short lifespan is typical of throwaway storefront scams. The site was hosted on Namecheap, Inc. network space at 209.74.79.203, geolocated to Japan.
What to do
If you paid a deposit, auction fee or shipping charge to this site, contact your bank or card issuer right away to request a chargeback or recall the transfer. Report the loss to your national fraud authority. If you paid in cryptocurrency, report the transaction to the exchange you sent it from. Expect follow-up contact offering to "recover" your money for a fee, and ignore it. If you entered card details, ask your issuer to replace the card. Defenders should block the domain and IP and add the name to brand-monitoring watchlists in case it is re-registered.

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.
Os relacionamentos armazenados são agrupados pelo atributo de correspondência exata. Um provedor ou registrador compartilhado por si só não prova propriedade comum.
Mesmo registrador: NameCheap6
Registrados pelo mesmo registrador. Um registrador atende a milhões de clientes sem qualquer relação entre si; portanto, isso apenas agrupa os registros, em vez de comprovar uma ligação.

A money-and-run dealership sells trust it has not earned: a storefront that looks established, an invoice payable only by bank wire, and no vehicle at the end of it. FBI IC3 books that loss as Vehicle Purchase Fraud. Here the auction calendar is what gives it away.

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 partridgeautosupply.com)
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
