DANGEROUS

Recovery scam — they can't get your money back

Domain was registered only 0 days ago — brand-new sites are higher-risk by default. This targets people who already lost money — but no one can "recover" funds already sent to a scammer, and legitimate services never contact victims first or ask for an up-front fee. Anyone promising to get your money back for a payment is running a second scam. Don't pay, and don't share ID or banking details.

These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.

Confidence
The domain registered on July 11 2026 and currently displays only a generic placeholder message. Our fingerprinting system identifies it as a clone of nexoratrust.com, a site already flagged by security researchers as a phishing and recovery-scam operation. No business registration exists for Asteraxtrade, no contact information appears on the page, and the hosting IP carries a prior abuse report. The combination of an identical scam-family match, zero-day registration, and complete absence of legitimate business signals produces a high-confidence malicious classification.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The page title reads "Application placeholder" and the visible text is limited to a default server-setup confirmation message stating the site is "waiting for content." No login forms, contact details, or business information are present. The HTML loaded successfully with a 200 response and includes Cloudflare analytics scripts, confirming a functional but empty deployment.

Infrastructure

The site resolves to IP 104.21.31.70 on Cloudflare infrastructure. The SSL certificate is valid and issued by Google Trust Services with 89 days remaining. One abuse report exists for the IP, though the overall abuse score remains low. No redirects occur and the page loads directly.

Domain History

The domain was registered today (July 11 2026) through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. WHOIS privacy protection is disabled, yet no registrant details are visible. The domain has zero global traffic ranking and no historical records.

Web Reputation

Our antivirus network returned zero malicious flags and one suspicious classification from Fortinet. Browser blocklists show the domain as clean. Independent evidence links asteraxtrade.com to nexoratrust.com, a domain previously identified as part of a phishing and recovery-scam cluster that also includes lsolink.com. No business registration appears in any jurisdiction searched.

What this means for you

The site is a newly created clone of a known scam domain with no legitimate business presence. Entering any credentials or personal data would send information to the same operators behind the flagged nexoratrust.com campaign.

What to do

Recovery / refund scam

This targets people who already lost money to a scam. No legitimate service can reverse funds already sent to a scammer.

  • Do not interact with asteraxtrade.com

    Do not enter credentials, deposit money, download files, or install browser extensions from this site.

  • Never pay an up-front fee to "recover" money

    Real recovery (a bank chargeback, law enforcement) never charges you in advance. Any site or "agent" that asks for a fee, gift cards, or crypto to release your "recovered" funds is a second scam.

  • Be suspicious of anyone who contacts you first

    Scammers resell victim lists. If a "recovery expert" messaged you out of the blue, it's almost certainly the same crew (or a partner) coming back for a second hit.

  • Report it and use official channels only

    Report to the FTC (reportfraud.ftc.gov), the FBI's IC3 (ic3.gov), or Action Fraud (UK). For card payments, your bank's dispute process is the only legitimate path.

Safety FAQ

Common questions, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • asteraxtrade.com is a dangerous recovery / refund scam — avoid interacting with it. Our review tagged it for phishing and clone site. 1 of 92 security engines flag it. The domain is only 0 days old through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED — a fresh registration is a classic scam fingerprint. This pattern matches throwaway sites built to take money or data and disappear.
  • No — asteraxtrade.com scored just 15/100 on our trust scale, and we detected active threat indicators. We recommend avoiding it entirely: don't log in, pay, download anything, or connect a wallet.
  • If you've already paid or handed over details on asteraxtrade.com, act quickly. 1) Contact your bank or card issuer immediately and ask to dispute the charge or open a chargeback — the sooner you act, the better your odds. 2) Report the site to the U.S. FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov or the FBI's IC3 at ic3.gov, and in the UK to Action Fraud at actionfraud.police.uk. 3) If you entered a password, change it on asteraxtrade.com and anywhere you reused it, and turn on two-factor authentication. 4) Watch your bank and email for follow-up fraud, and keep screenshots as evidence.
  • Often yes, if you act fast. Payments made by credit or debit card can frequently be reversed through a chargeback or dispute — contact your bank right away and explain it was a fraudulent site. Bank transfers and gift-card or voucher payments are much harder to recover, but you should still report them to your bank and to the FTC (reportfraud.ftc.gov) or Action Fraud (actionfraud.police.uk). Avoid any "refund" or "recovery" service that contacts you first — it's usually a follow-up scam.
  • No. Once money — especially crypto — has been sent to a scammer, no private "recovery" service can claw it back; that's simply not how payments or blockchains work. Sites and "agents" that promise to recover funds for an up-front fee are a second scam that preys on people already hurt once. The only legitimate routes are your bank's chargeback / dispute process for card payments and reporting to law enforcement (IC3, FTC, Action Fraud) — none of which charge you a fee in advance.
  • You can report asteraxtrade.com through several official channels: the U.S. FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov, the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) at ic3.gov, and — in the UK — Action Fraud at actionfraud.police.uk. You can also flag it to Google Safe Browsing (safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish) so other browsers warn about it, and report it to the company being impersonated if there is one. Reporting helps get scam sites taken down faster.
  • Modern scams are built to look convincing. A valid SSL padlock, a polished template, stock photos, fake reviews, and a trust badge can all be added in minutes and prove nothing about who runs the site. Scammers buy cheap domains, clone real designs, and copy legal pages wholesale. That's exactly why an automated review that checks the domain's age, hosting, blacklists, and behaviour — rather than just how the page looks — is more reliable than a first impression.
  • Yes. 1 of 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network flagged asteraxtrade.com as suspicious. Even a single detection from a reputable engine is a meaningful warning, and multiple detections rarely happen by accident.
  • No — asteraxtrade.com is not currently on the major browser blocklist feeds that Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge rely on. Note that blocklists can lag behind brand-new scam domains, so "not listed" is reassuring but not a guarantee on its own.
  • asteraxtrade.com is 0 days old, registered on July 11, 2026 through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. Scam sites are very often freshly registered and short-lived, so an age under six months is a reason for extra caution.
  • asteraxtrade.com resolves to an IP operated by Cloudflare, Inc. in US (Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad — but hosting that doesn't match a brand's claimed country, or that sits on networks known for abuse, is one of the many signals we weigh alongside the verdict above.
  • This report is a record of the scan run on July 11, 2026, and the verdict reflects that point in time. Scam sites change fast — they can go live, get flagged, or vanish within days — so if you believe something about asteraxtrade.com has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
