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.

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.

联邦调查局（FBI）指南
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.
Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
当地警方 — 即使无法立即采取行动，也能留下正式记录
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?
虚假网站 — 与正规网站完全一致的克隆网站，仅域名略有改动
猪的屠宰 — 通过Telegram/WhatsApp/交友软件花数周时间建立信任，随后钱被骗走
退款诈骗 — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
