What happened
Anti-phishing project PhishDestroy posted on Mastodon on 10 November 2026 that volksvermogen-netherlands[.]com is a phishing detection, alongside a run of AI-trading sign-up pages it flagged the same morning. The domain is also on the Phishing Army blocklist. Its name (Dutch for "people's wealth") suggests an investment offer aimed at the Netherlands. Check any investment platform against the Dutch regulator AFM's warning list before signing up or sharing your phone number.
How the scam works
The domain volksvermogen-netherlands.com, whose name is Dutch for "people's wealth", was flagged by PhishDestroy alongside a run of AI-trading sign-up pages the same morning and is also on the Phishing Army blocklist. Investment sites aimed at a particular country often use a local-language name, a professional-looking dashboard and a request for a phone number or an initial deposit.
Check any investment platform against the Dutch regulator AFM's warning list and register before signing up, sharing a phone number or sending money. The detection comes from a public PhishDestroy post and has not been independently checked by scammers.com.
A Dutch-language name, a .com address and a professional layout are not a substitute for AFM authorisation. If you have already had a call or have sent even a small deposit, treat further requests for more money, tax, or a verification fee as a continuation of the same approach and report them rather than paying.
