goldpocket.biz presents itself as "Goldpocket: One-Stop Global Investment Platform," claiming to offer trading in forex, commodities, stocks, indices, cryptocurrencies, gold and oil. PhishDestroy classifies it as an impersonation phishing page. It targets people looking for an easy route into multi-asset or crypto trading. We first flagged it on 2026-10-09. On 2026-10-19 the domain still resolved, but the page content could not be reached.
How the scam works
The sweeping page title, which covers every asset class from crypto to oil, is typical of sites that copy the look of a legitimate brokerage to win trust quickly. Visitors are pushed to open an account and fund it, often in cryptocurrency, and are then shown a dashboard with growing balances that exist only on screen. Attempts to cash out usually trigger demands for "taxes," "verification" or "withdrawal fees," and the money never comes back. Signup forms can also collect identity documents and login details that are reused in later fraud.
Evidence
Six of 92 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain on 2026-10-13: alphaMountain.ai, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft and Sophos. That is a minority of engines, but the vendors are independent of each other and reached the same verdict. The domain also appears on the MetaMask and SEAL blocklists alongside PhishDestroy, so wallet users and the crypto security community are already being warned about it. Four AlienVault OTX threat pulses reference it as well.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered through Gname.com Pte. Ltd. on 2025-10-12, almost a year before we detected it. A gap that long suggests the site may have been operating quietly for some time. Traffic runs through Cloudflare, Inc. at an address geolocated to Canada, which keeps the real origin server hidden.
What to do
If you deposited funds on goldpocket.biz, do not pay any further fee to "unlock" a withdrawal, because that money will be lost too. Collect your transaction IDs and payment receipts, report them to your exchange or bank, and file a report with local police or a cybercrime unit. If you uploaded ID documents, watch for identity misuse. If you reused a password there, change it everywhere and turn on 2FA. Security teams should block the domain at DNS and proxy level and check logs for earlier visits by users.

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
