mexc-partner.com poses as the cryptocurrency exchange MEXC. Its page title, "mexc 거래소 | MEXC Exchange" (거래소 is Korean for "exchange"), shows it is aimed at Korean-speaking traders. The "partner" wording borrows the look of an official affiliate or partnership portal. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-09-19, and the page was still up and serving content on 2026-10-19.
How the scam works
Sites that impersonate an exchange copy the real brand's look so visitors believe they are on MEXC or an authorised partner. From there, the victim is typically asked to log in, which hands account credentials and one-time codes to the operators. Alternatively, the victim is told to deposit crypto into a "partner" account that the attackers control. Funds sent there cannot be recovered, and stolen logins can be used to empty the victim's real MEXC account.
Evidence
Six of 91 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain as of 2026-09-29: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar and VIPRE. That count is modest, so many security tools will still let the page load without warning. Stronger backing comes from the blocklists. MetaMask and SEAL list the domain alongside PhishDestroy, which means wallet users get protection from tools that rely on those lists. Two AlienVault OTX threat pulses also reference the domain.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2024-07-25 through Megazone Corp., dba HOSTING.KR, more than two years before PhishDestroy detected it. That gap suggests a name held in reserve or reused rather than one created just for this campaign. It resolves to 141.164.54.198 on The Constant Company, LLC network, located in South Korea. A Korean registrar, Korean hosting and a Korean page title together fit an operation focused on the Korean market.
What to do
Do not log in or deposit anything on this site. If you entered your MEXC credentials, change your password right away from the official app and reset two-factor authentication. Then review active sessions, API keys and withdrawal whitelist addresses for anything you did not add. If you sent crypto to an address shown on the page, report the transaction to MEXC support and the police, and keep your transaction hashes. Ignore anyone who later offers to recover the funds for a fee. Defenders should block the domain and its IP and alert Korean-speaking users about fake MEXC "partner" pages.
No. PhishDestroy classifies mexc-partner.com as a phishing page (risk: critical, 95/100); it was first detected on 2026-09-19. VirusTotal: 6/91 engines flag it. Treat the site as unsafe.
Is mexc-partner.com safe to connect a wallet?
No. Do not connect a wallet, sign messages or approve tokens on mexc-partner.com. 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 mexc-partner.com?
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 mexc-partner.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)
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
