PhishDestroy threat report
connect-wallet.xyz is a crypto wallet drainer that impersonated WalletConnect, the widely used wallet connection protocol, to lure cryptocurrency holders into authorizing malicious transactions. The site presented itself under the page title "Wallet Connect — Connect Wallet," closely mimicking the legitimate service's branding. PhishDestroy first identified it on 2026-09-13. The site went offline almost immediately after discovery and has been dead since 2026-09-14, with DNS now inactive as of the last check on 2026-10-17.
The site posed as a WalletConnect interface, prompting visitors to connect their crypto wallets in order to resolve a fabricated issue or access a service. Once a user connected their wallet and signed a transaction request, the drainer contract silently transferred tokens and NFTs out of the wallet to attacker-controlled addresses. Urlscan.io also detected Trust Wallet branding on the page, meaning the site may have targeted users of multiple wallets. Victims typically lose all transferable assets in a single interaction, with no ability to reverse the on-chain transactions.
On 2026-09-13, VirusTotal flagged the domain as malicious across 15 of 89 scanning engines, with detections from BitDefender, ESET, Fortinet, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, CyRadar, and Chong Lua Dao. Urlscan.io independently returned a malicious verdict and detected Trust Wallet branding. Spamhaus classified the domain as DBL_PHISH on its Domain Block List. The domain also appeared in three OTX threat intelligence pulses and was added to the PhishDestroy, Polkadot, Enkrypt, and Codeesura blocklists.
The domain was registered on 2026-09-08 through TuringSign Inc. d/b/a Cosmotown, just five days before PhishDestroy detected it. It resolved to IP address 163.61.188.5 on the NEW DHAKA HARDWARE network, hosted in the United States. TLS was provided by Let's Encrypt under the YR2 intermediate, a free certificate that requires no identity verification.
If you visited this site and connected your wallet, immediately revoke all token approvals granted to any contracts authorized during that session using a trusted approval-management tool. Transfer remaining assets to a fresh wallet address that was never exposed to the site. If you signed any transaction, assume all assets in that wallet are at risk and act without delay. Security teams and wallet providers should ensure connect-wallet.xyz and its associated IP 163.61.188.5 are present in their blocklists, and should alert users who may have interacted with the domain during its brief active window between 2026-09-13 and 2026-09-14.
