Domain hoster NameCheap has become the darling of pishing criminals since accepting Bitcoins as payment in Sep 2020. The UK National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) statistic provides impressive evidence. The number of UK government-themed pishing campaigns via NameCheap exploded while GoDaddy numbers remained flat. The acceptance of Bitcoin evidently drove the NameCheap business north!

The Spanish regulator CNMV has issued a warning against the broker scam IGC Trades (www.igctrades.com). The operator is allegedly International Markets Management Ltd which we already know from other scams like FXGbp Markets. We also found out during today's review that InvestArea (https://investarea.com) scam also belongs to this network. We have discovered Paypound, Kryptova, Neobanq, and others as payment processors. Stay far away from these scams.
