Score
95/100

The domain www.btcangels.com poses a serious threat as a crypto drainer, a type of malicious website designed to steal cryptocurrency from users who attempt to log in. In this case, the site impersonates the legitimate Kraken exchange, displaying a page titled "Kraken: Buy and sell crypto securely" to trick visitors into entering their login credentials. Once submitted, the Angel Drainer kit installed on the site siphons off funds from the victim's wallet. This is not a simple phishing page but a targeted drainer that can empty a crypto account swiftly.

PhishDestroy's investigation reveals clear evidence of malicious intent. The domain was created on August 24, 2011, and registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC, but its current use as a drainer is unmistakable. VirusTotal shows that 1 out of 95 security vendors flag this domain, and it appears on one security blocklist. The site is now offline, but during its active period, it resolved to IP address 15.197.225.128 and used an SSL certificate from GoDaddy. The presence of Angel Drainer, a known drainer kit, confirms the site's purpose.

If you visited www.btcangels.com and entered any credentials or connected your wallet, take immediate action. Change your passwords for Kraken and any other services using the same credentials, enable two-factor authentication, and move any remaining crypto to a new wallet. Monitor your accounts for unauthorized transactions. Always verify URLs by typing them directly into your browser and use tools like PhishDestroy to check suspicious links before interacting with them.

Recommendations & Advice for Victims

An estimated $51 billion flowed to illicit crypto wallets in 2024 (source). If you interacted with btcangels.com — 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 btcangels.com)
  • 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
