velmocoin-system.com is a fake cryptocurrency exchange that presented itself as "Velmocoin | AI Trading Platform | Official Website." It targeted retail investors looking for automated, AI-driven crypto returns. PhishDestroy first detected it on 2026-09-23. The site went offline on 2026-09-26, and its DNS was still inactive when last checked on 2026-10-19.
How the scam works
Fake AI trading platforms like this one promise effortless profits from a supposedly intelligent trading bot. Victims are asked to register and deposit cryptocurrency or fiat. A dashboard then shows fabricated gains to encourage larger deposits. When users try to withdraw, the platform invents fees, taxes or verification steps that require further payments, and the funds never come back. Victims lose everything they deposited, along with any personal and identity documents submitted during sign-up.
Evidence
On 2026-09-25, VirusTotal showed only 1 of 91 engines flagging the domain, with SOCRadar as the sole detecting vendor. That low count reflects how quickly short-lived fraud sites appear and disappear, so it should not be read as a sign the site is safe. The domain appears in 5 AlienVault OTX threat pulses and is listed on the PhishDestroy blocklist.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2025-11-30 through MainReg Inc. It was hosted at 185.62.56.121 on the Snel.com B.V. network in the Netherlands. Its TLS certificate was issued by ZeroSSL GmbH (ZeroSSL ECC DV SSL CA 2), a domain-validated certificate that only confirms control of the domain, not the legitimacy of the business behind it.
What to do
If you deposited funds on this platform, stop all further payments, especially any "withdrawal fees" or "taxes." Report the loss to your local police and national fraud reporting center. If you paid through an exchange, card or bank, contact that provider immediately. Treat any "recovery service" that approaches you afterward as a likely second scam. If you uploaded ID documents, watch for identity misuse, and change any password you reused on the site. Defenders should block the domain and its hosting IP, add it to email and web filters, and watch for lookalike Velmocoin domains.

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.

我应该为报告收集哪些信息？
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
