I found a website (written in Spanish) that uses the names of some well-known mixers in the community, but that "casually" links the names of those mixers to phishing sites.
The website is this: https://ecuador-btc-mixers.com/ and the last update is from the 12th of this month.
Some links are:
UniJoin: which links with http://unijoin.org/. Scam.
Coinomize: which links with http://coinmixer.app/. Scam.
Mixero: which links with http://mixeru.io/. Scam.
I haven't read much else, but it's possible that the admin of that website updates the links with new phishing links.

It's actually quite common to come across links and sites like this. Basically speaking almost all big websites with reputation usually have fakes and that is one of the reasons why most of them try their best to make sure that they make their original sites stand out. Basically they make their domains more formal because most of the fake domains are usually have informal and odd extensions.
Mixero and Even coinomize have made it very public about differentiateing their real sites from the fake they have it on their Ann thread too.

Knowing how slow Google is when it comes to reporting a website that contains malware or phishing, as is the case, the only thing that can help other users is for the maximum number of people to report such sites. If this is not done, the process becomes much longer than normal, and during that time more people may fall into the trap.

Thanks for reporting this OP.
Interesting how they are using real names and fees for mixers on their website, but domain names are using different domains.
I would recommend people to use two proven services made by our community members to find the list of legit mixers and other privacy related services:
1. Bitlist
https://bitlist.co/
2. BitMix List
https://bitmixlist.org/

Yeah I am much more into mining with some buying and hodling mixed in. I have found so many bad mining sites with a one letter or a period or a comma different than bitmain as they look for you to deposit btc and never send any gear. This is something you need to watch for time and time again.

The website I referred to in the OP was updated on the 22nd of this month (4 days ago) with new fraudulent domains with the intention of scamming users.

Thanks for reporting this OP.
As you can see, unfortunately there are new domains.
Yeah I am much more into mining with some buying and hodling mixed in. I have found so many bad mining sites with a one letter or a period or a comma different than bitmain as they look for you to deposit btc and never send any gear. This is something you need to watch for time and time again.
That's precisely why I made this separate thread. It seems that the website I reference in the OP is updated every few days with new phishing links.

Always be very careful and check several times where you are going to send your funds.

if you are not careful enough you are definitely going to fall victim to this kinds of scams being irresponsible and excessively confident will lead you to this kind of path because when you think you are immune to scams or any malware then that is actually when you are the most vulnerable so always be careful and always exhibit precautionary measures

Mixers are the most targeted of scammers to clone and phish, so if you often use mixers, better bookmark your favorite phishing links and get updated if new phishing links.
I remember Sinbad before it was taken down.
It has over 15 phishing links. Scammers and hackers are active during the bull run; they know that this is the time when traders are very active in using mixers.

...better bookmark your favorite phishing links and get updated if new phishing links.
Although doing what you say would be the most logical and the first thing that would occur to most users, it does not prevent the problem 100% either due to several vulnerabilities.
There are many malicious extensions and other things that can modify the URLs that we have stored

This may indicate that the success of sites that list mixers and similar services is an incentive for these scammers to create such services. This scammer may be present here or active on BTT/ALTT.

There may be scammers on the forums, yes, and it is surely very lucrative for them. One of the last wallets I saw had over 2 BTC accumulated, and that amount was just from one of the phishing sites. The more fraudulent sites like the ones I expose in this thread exist, the more money they can scam users.
Unfortunately, many users do not learn good practices on how to use a mixer, and by the time they do, it is too late.

I know I always say the same thing, but always verify in every way possible that you are accessing the correct URL. And remember that it is not always enough to have the URL saved.

That's right. I reported some of those domains in January in this thread: Phishing sites impersonating eXch (https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=327417.0).
After several days of trying to access it from different devices and browsers (including Tor), it appears the website is no longer accessible. I'd like to think the administrator is trying to eliminate all traces of their scams and won't add any more malicious links.
