“based punk | Manifold”
The domain basedpunksextra.xyz was created on February 21 2026 and is currently taken offline. It resolves to the IP address 188.114.97.3, which belongs to AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. in the United States. The site presented the page title "based punk | Manifold" and was classified as a generic phishing campaign employing brand impersonation techniques.
The domain appears on three security blocklists and has been actively blocked by PhishDestroy, ScamSniffer, and Enkrypt. VirusTotal records show that the domain was scanned by 93 antivirus vendors; none reported a detection, though this absence of alerts does not constitute a safety guarantee. The SSL certificate is rated E1, indicating the presence of encryption but offering no assurance of legitimacy.
No further technical artifacts such as payload hashes or command‑and‑control endpoints have been disclosed. Given the limited exposure window and the presence of the domain on multiple blocklists, defenders should add both the hostname and its Cloudflare IP to network deny lists, enforce TLS inspection where feasible, and monitor DNS query logs for any resurgence. Continuous re‑scanning with threat‑intel platforms is advised to detect potential re‑use of the infrastructure, and any future activity should be reported to relevant sink‑hole operators and upstream providers.

Recommendations & Advice for Victims
An estimated $51 billion flowed to illicit crypto wallets in 2024 (source). If you interacted with basedpunksextra.xyz — act now.
What should I do immediately?
Urgent
- Revoke token approvals — use revoke.cash to remove access granted to malicious smart contracts
- Move remaining funds to a brand-new wallet. The compromised wallet is no longer safe
- Change all passwords — email, exchange accounts, anything that shares the same password
- Enable 2FA using an authenticator app (not SMS). Disable SMS-based recovery
- Freeze cards if you entered banking details on the phishing site
What information should I collect for my report?
FBI guidelines
According to the FBI, the most important details are transaction data:
- Cryptocurrency addresses — scammer's wallet (e.g.,
0x5856...35985) - Amount & crypto type — exact amount (e.g., 1.02345 ETH, 0.5 BTC, 500 USDT)
- Transaction ID (hash) — the unique blockchain transaction identifier
- Exact dates & times — of each transaction and first contact with scammer
- Screenshots — scam website, chat messages, emails, wallet transactions, social media
- All URLs & domains used by the scammer (including
basedpunksextra.xyz) - Communications — emails, texts, phone numbers, usernames the scammer used
Even if you don't have all details — file a report anyway. Partial information still helps investigations.
Where should I report the scam?
- FBI IC3 — Internet Crime Complaint Center (US federal reporting)
- Europol — European cybercrime reporting (EU)
- Chainabuse — flag scam wallets across exchanges & platforms
- Your crypto exchange — notify its fraud team immediately; it may be able to preserve records or restrict funds held on its platform
- Local police — creates an official record, even if they can't act immediately
A report is not a guarantee of recovery or investigation, but prompt, accurate transaction data can help authorities and service providers trace the incident.
How do crypto scams typically work?
- Fake websites — pixel-perfect clones of legitimate sites with slightly altered domains
- Malicious approvals — "connect wallet" prompts that grant unlimited token spending to attackers
- Pig butchering — trust built over weeks via Telegram/WhatsApp/dating apps, then money stolen
- Recovery scams — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
- Fake ads & airdrops — Google/social media ads and "free token" offers leading to wallet drainers
- AI-powered scams — deepfakes, automated phishing, and AI-generated sites making fraud harder to detect
How can I protect myself in the future?
- Use a hardware wallet (Ledger, Trezor). Never store large amounts in browser wallets
- Bookmark official sites — never click links from emails, DMs, or ads
- Read every approval — verify permissions before signing. Reject unlimited approvals
- Verify domains — check on PhishDestroy before interacting. Check HTTPS, spelling, domain age
- "Too good to be true" = scam — guaranteed returns, celebrity endorsements, urgent deadlines
