catcoin.ws is a phishing page that impersonates Solana under the page title "Solana Claim." It targets Solana wallet holders who expect a token airdrop or reward. PhishDestroy first saw it on 2026-10-13. On 2026-10-19 the site was still online and serving its phishing content.
How the scam works
Fake "claim" pages promise free tokens and tell visitors to connect their wallet to collect them. The connect button leads to a transaction or approval that hands control of the victim's assets to the attacker. Some versions instead ask for a recovery phrase to "verify" the wallet. Either way, the victim gets no tokens and can lose the SOL and tokens in the connected wallet. A phrase typed into the page gives the attacker the whole wallet.
Evidence
On 2026-10-17, VirusTotal showed 6 of 92 engines flagging the domain: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, Gridinsoft and SOCRadar. That count is modest, so many browsers and security tools may still let the page load without a warning. Wallet-focused blocklists already list it, including MetaMask, SEAL and PhishDestroy. Spamhaus lists it in its domain blocklist under the phishing category (DBL_PHISH), and it appears in 4 AlienVault OTX threat pulses.
Infrastructure
The domain resolves to 188.114.97.3 on Cloudflare's network (AS13335, United States). This address belongs to Cloudflare's proxy layer, so it hides the server that actually hosts the page. The site uses a free Let's Encrypt certificate, so the padlock in the browser only means the connection is encrypted. It says nothing about whether the site is legitimate.
What to do
Do not connect a wallet or sign anything on catcoin.ws. If you already connected and approved a transaction, move your remaining assets to a fresh wallet right away and revoke any token delegations or permissions you granted from that session. If you typed your recovery phrase into the page, treat the wallet as compromised and move everything you can to a new wallet with a new phrase. Defenders should block the domain at DNS and web proxies and add it to wallet and browser protection lists. Report it to Cloudflare so the content can be taken down while it is still live.
No. PhishDestroy classifies catcoin.ws as a Solana impersonation page (risk: critical, 95/100); it was first detected on 2026-10-13. VirusTotal: 6/92 engines flag it. Listed on Spamhaus DBL. Treat the site as unsafe.
Is catcoin.ws safe to connect a wallet?
No. Do not connect a wallet, sign messages or approve tokens on catcoin.ws. Phishing sites ask for approvals (approve, setApprovalForAll, Permit2) that let the operator move your assets, and a confirmed transaction cannot be reversed.
What should I do if I used catcoin.ws?
Change every password you entered there and turn on two-factor authentication. If you connected a wallet or signed something, revoke the approvals and move the remaining funds to a new wallet; never share your seed phrase. Step-by-step help: emergency guide.

After a phishing incident
Recommendations & Advice for Victims
Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.
What should I do immediately?
Urgent
Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.
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
Keep original emails, receipts, messages and screenshots in a secure place. A factual timeline helps the receiving authority understand what happened. IC3 evidence guidance ↗
Payment records — if you paid, save the receipt, amount, date, payment provider and recipient details.
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 catcoin.ws)
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)
Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
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 phishing scams typically work?
Fake websites — pixel-perfect clones of legitimate sites with slightly altered domains
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
AI-powered scams — deepfakes, automated phishing, and AI-generated sites making fraud harder to detect
How can I protect myself in the future?
Bookmark official sites — never click links from emails, DMs, or ads
Verify domains — check on PhishDestroy before interacting. Check HTTPS, spelling, domain age
"Too good to be true" = scam — guaranteed returns, celebrity endorsements, urgent deadlines
