app-dot-polkadot[.]cc

This domain, app-dot-polkadot.cc, is flagged as a high-risk crypto drainer operation specifically targeting users of the Polkadot (DOT) blockchain network. Analysis indicates the threat actor has constructed a fraudulent Web3 interface mimicking Polkadot's official branding, including an identical page title ('Polkadot (DOT): Scalable Multi-Chain Interoperability for Web3') and visual design elements. The site likely employs a malicious smart contract or wallet drainer script designed to automatically siphon cryptocurrency assets from connected wallets upon user interaction, a common tactic in blockchain phishing campaigns. Infrastructure analysis reveals multiple technical indicators confirming malicious intent. The domain was registered on October 10, 2025, through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited, with resolution to IP address 172.67.158.18 (AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.). Security vendor detection shows 13 out of 95 engines on VirusTotal flagging the domain as malicious, while it appears on four independent security blocklists. The SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services (WE1), a legitimate provider often abused by threat actors to create false legitimacy. Notably, the domain is already blocked by Polkadot's official security systems, Enkrypt wallet protection, and other blockchain security platforms. Current status indicates the domain remains active and operational, posing an ongoing threat to cryptocurrency users. Response actions have been initiated by multiple security entities, though the infrastructure remains accessible. The remaining risk is classified as high due to the domain's recent creation date, active Cloudflare hosting, and direct targeting of Polkadot's user base. Users are advised to immediately revoke any wallet connections to this domain, verify transaction histories for unauthorized transfers, and implement strict origin checks before interacting with any Web3 interfaces. Organizations should update security blocklists and monitor for similar domains using the 'polkadot' keyword in combination with subdomains or hyphenated variations.
