valoterno.top posed as a Riot Games promotion under the page title 'VALORANT | Exclusive Drop', a lure built for VALORANT players hoping for free in-game items. PhishDestroy first saw it on 2026-09-14 and classifies it as impersonation phishing. The site has been offline since 2026-09-16, and on 2026-10-19 its DNS was still inactive.
How the scam works
Fake 'drop' pages promise exclusive skins or rewards and then ask the player to sign in to claim them. Any username, password or one-time code typed into the Riot-styled form goes to the operators. With those, they can take over the account, along with its skins, purchased currency and ranked history, and resell it or use it to spread the same lure to the victim's friends. Because the page only borrowed Riot's branding, nothing claimed there was ever real.
Evidence
Sixteen of 89 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain as of 2026-09-16, including BitDefender, ESET, Fortinet, G-Data, Emsisoft, alphaMountain.ai, CRDF and Ermes. That is a meaningful spread of independent vendors for a site that lived only a few days. urlscan.io returned a malicious verdict and specifically recognized Riot Games branding on the page. Spamhaus lists the domain in its DBL as spam, and four AlienVault OTX threat pulses reference it.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-09-07 through PDR Ltd. (PublicDomainRegistry.com) and was spotted one week later. This short lead time is typical of throwaway phishing domains set up for a single campaign. It resolved to 138.226.236.192 on the Cryphora Limited network in Belize. A free Let's Encrypt certificate gave it the padlock icon, which shows only that the connection was encrypted and says nothing about who ran the site.
What to do
If you entered Riot credentials on this page, change your Riot password at once, and change it anywhere else you reused it. Turn on two-factor authentication, sign out of all sessions and check your account for unfamiliar purchases, missing items or changed email settings. Contact Riot support if you have already lost access. Security teams should block the domain and its IP and alert gaming communities that 'exclusive drop' pages asking for a login are a common account-theft lure.

Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations
For this gTLD, 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
