The domain paucakeswap.finance is a generic phishing site targeting cryptocurrency users. It does not impersonate a specific brand but operates as a broad cryptocurrency scam, attempting to deceive victims into disclosing wallet credentials or transferring funds. As of the latest verification, paucakeswap.finance has been taken offline, though it previously posed an elevated risk of financial loss.

Technical indicators confirm the malicious nature of paucakeswap.finance. The domain was flagged by 3 of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, including CRDF and Gridinsoft, which assigned a trust score of 0/100. It appears on 2 security blocklists, PhishDestroy and ScamSniffer, and was registered through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited on July 20, 2025. The domain resolved to the IP address 186.2.162.220, hosted under AS59692 IQWeb FZ-LLC in Belize, with no SSL certificate issued. The site had only one nameserver configured and displayed no page title during analysis.

Users who interacted with paucakeswap.finance should immediately revoke any token approvals granted to unknown contracts and transfer remaining funds to a new, secure wallet. Enable two-factor authentication on all cryptocurrency accounts and monitor for unauthorized transactions. Report the domain to relevant platforms, such as Google Safe Browsing, ScamAdviser, or local cybercrime authorities, to prevent further victimization.

Accreditation and RAA context

Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations

For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.

Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.

RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.

Accountability draft Nothing is sent automatically.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.
