db.ashoo.ventures is an impersonation phishing page that presents itself as the official home of Ashoo. Its Russian-language title translates to "Ashoo - official site and current access to the platform," so it is aimed at Russian-speaking users looking for a working way into that service. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-08-31. As of 2026-10-19 the site is still online and redirects visitors onward.
How the scam works
The page bets on one habit: people who can't reach a service search for an "official" or "current access" link and trust whatever ranks or gets shared. Once a visitor lands on the lookalike, they are steered into signing in, registering or funding an account on infrastructure the real Ashoo does not control. Anything typed there, including logins, passwords, one-time codes, personal details or deposits, goes to the operators. The redirect keeps the page useful to them, because they can send visitors to whatever destination currently serves the scheme.
Evidence
On 2026-09-11, 6 of 89 VirusTotal engines classed the domain as malicious: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar and VIPRE. That count is modest, but these are six independent vendors, including web-filtering and threat-intel feeds, reaching the same verdict. PhishDestroy lists the domain on its blocklist. A low score mostly means many products will not yet block it, so users cannot count on a browser warning.
Infrastructure
The parent domain ashoo.ventures was registered through NameCheap, Inc. on 2025-11-16, about nine and a half months before PhishDestroy detected it. That long gap suggests the domain was held or used quietly before this page surfaced. Using a subdomain like "db." also lets operators rotate pages under one registration. Traffic goes through Cloudflare, Inc., with the address geolocated to Canada, so the real origin server is hidden behind the proxy.
What to do
If you signed in on this page, change your Ashoo password right away, along with any other account that uses the same one. Turn on or reset two-factor authentication and end any active sessions you don't recognize. If you sent money or made a deposit there, contact your bank or payment provider immediately. Do not pay any "verification" or "unlock" fee these sites may later ask for. Reach Ashoo only through an address you have confirmed independently, not through search results or shared "mirror" links. Defenders should block the domain and the wider ashoo.ventures zone, and alert Russian-speaking user groups to lookalike "official access" pages.
For the registrable domain ashoo.ventures behind this subdomain, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.
Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.
RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.
Saved certificate metadata. Certificate dates without a timezone are shown as stored. Transport encryption does not establish that the site is trustworthy.

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
