  1. A fake Alibaba Trade Assurance escrow page that sells GPUs nobody ships. About eight hours after the domain was registered we found an open directory with a personalised order page: five RTX 5090 cards, USD 5,500, banner "Covered, funds are frozen", and a Pay Now button with Bitcoin, USDT and bank-transfer details.

    Not a credential phisher but an advance-fee scam. The victim uploads a payment proof, which is forwarded to a Telegram bot. The three crypto addresses were empty when we checked, so no one had paid in crypto yet. The page was clearly recycled from an earlier scam (placeholder token, a PlayStation order left in the code).
