Analysis of user8171.trustpay.energy indicates a newly registered infrastructure designed to impersonate Mastercard. The domain was created on 21 February 2026 and is registered through Global Domain Group LLC. It is hosted on Cloudflare’s network (AS13335) and resolves to 104.21.47.137, an IP located in the United States. The authoritative nameservers are melina.ns.cloudflare.com and neil.ns.cloudflare.com, confirming the use of Cloudflare’s DNS service. No TLS certificate is presented, meaning the site was served without HTTPS, which is atypical for a site claiming to handle private crypto cards and further undermines legitimacy.
The page title returned from the live site reads “Trust | Your Private Crypto Card,” suggesting a cryptocurrency‑related lure, while the declared scam type is Wallet/Seed Phishing, consistent with attempts to harvest private keys or seed phrases. The domain has been flagged by multiple defensive feeds: PhishDestroy and ScamSniffer have listed it, and it appears on two additional security blocklists. VirusTotal analysis shows that 12 of 93 scanned security vendors flagged the domain, reinforcing the malicious assessment. Gridinsoft’s trust scoring system assigned a score of 0 out of 100, indicating an extremely low trust rating.
The site is currently offline, which may be the result of takedown actions or temporary hosting changes, but the underlying registration and hosting details remain active. Uncertainty remains around the exact content that was delivered to victims, as no screenshots or HTTP response bodies are available. Defenders should add the domain and its resolved IP address to outbound and inbound filtering rules, monitor for any future DNS resolution to the same Cloudflare IP range, and ensure that endpoint protection solutions are updated to include the 12 vendor detections reported by VirusTotal.

Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations
For the registrable domain trustpay.energy 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.

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.
An estimated time describes an observation window. It does not prove a registrar action or the exact moment a site became unavailable.

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
