This domain, exchange[.]base[.]software, is identified as a high-risk brand impersonation threat targeting Base, a cryptocurrency platform. Analysis indicates the infrastructure was designed to deceive users into interacting with fraudulent exchange services, likely aiming to facilitate unauthorized transactions or credential theft. No specific drainer kit signatures were confirmed, but the domain's design and targeting align with known cryptocurrency phishing campaigns. Infrastructure analysis reveals the following technical indicators: the domain was registered on May 11, 2026, through Porkbun LLC, an unusual future date suggesting potential registrar manipulation or typo-squatting tactics. It resolves to IP address 20.204.77.223, hosted on Microsoft Azure Cloud in central India. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt (R12), a common choice for malicious actors due to its low cost and automation capabilities. Google Safe Browsing flags the domain as phishing, and it appears on three security blocklists, including PhishDestroy and MetaMask. VirusTotal reports 18 out of 95 security vendors detecting the domain as malicious, with detections spanning phishing and brand impersonation categories. The domain is currently offline, likely due to takedown actions or voluntary suspension by the hosting provider. Despite its inactive status, residual risk remains for users who may have interacted with the domain during its operational window. Organizations are advised to monitor for related indicators, including the IP address and SSL certificate thumbprint, in network logs. Users should be alerted to the impersonation tactics targeting Base and encouraged to verify domain authenticity through official channels before engaging with cryptocurrency services.

Beware of recovery scammers! After being scammed, criminals may contact you again pretending to be "recovery agents," lawyers, or investigators who claim they can retrieve your lost funds — for a fee. This is a second scam. No legitimate service will ask for upfront payment to recover stolen crypto. Learn more about recovery fraud →

Recommendations & Advice for Victims
An estimated $51 billion flowed to illicit crypto wallets in 2024 (source). If you interacted with exchange.base.software — 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
exchange.base.software) - 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 — contact Coinbase/Binance/Kraken support to freeze scammer's address
- Local police — creates an official record, even if they can't act immediately
The FBI recovered over $1 billion in crypto fraud in 2024 thanks to victim reports. Your report matters.
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 — victims targeted AGAIN by fake "recovery agents" demanding upfront fees. Always a scam
- 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
How big is the crypto scam problem?
- $51 billion flowed to illicit crypto wallets in 2024 — CoinLedger
- Pig butchering losses grew 40% year over year, now the fastest-growing fraud type
- Only ~5% of victims report — your report helps shut down criminal networks
- FBI recovered $1B+ in 2024 thanks to victim reports — FBI.gov
