pollymarket.global is an impersonation phishing page posing as Polymarket, the crypto-based prediction market. The domain adds an extra "l" to the real brand name and uses a different extension, so it is easy to miss in a link or a hurried search. It targets Polymarket users and crypto traders. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-09-06, and it has been offline since 2026-09-11, with its DNS still inactive as of 2026-10-19.
How the scam works
The page carried Polymarket's own branding in its title, "Polymarket | The World's Largest Prediction Market™", so the browser tab and any search snippet looked authentic. Impersonation pages like this get victims to trust a copy of a familiar service and then do what they would normally do there, such as signing in or connecting a wallet to trade. On a clone, those actions hand control to the operator. Victims can lose login credentials or wallet access, and they can lose funds if they approve a transaction or permission the site requests.
Evidence
Eight of 90 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain on 2026-09-06, the same day PhishDestroy caught it. The flagging vendors were ChainPatrol, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky and SOCRadar. The crypto-focused blocklists of MetaMask, ScamSniffer and SEAL also list it, so wallet users with those protections would have been warned. Spamhaus lists it in its domain blocklist as phishing (DBL_PHISH), and it appears in four AlienVault OTX threat pulses.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-09-03 through PDR Ltd. (PublicDomainRegistry.com) and was flagged three days later. The site went dark within about a week of registration, which fits a short-lived phishing domain built for a quick campaign. It sat behind Cloudflare in the US, which hides the real origin server. It had a valid certificate from Google Trust Services, so the browser padlock showed nothing wrong.
What to do
If you entered a Polymarket login or email on this site, change that password, change it anywhere you reused it, and turn on two-factor authentication. If you connected a wallet, check its token approvals in a revocation tool and revoke any you did not intend. If you signed anything there, move your remaining assets to a fresh wallet. Never type a seed phrase into any site. Defenders should block pollymarket.global and watch for further Polymarket lookalikes that add or swap characters or use alternate extensions.
No. PhishDestroy classifies pollymarket.global as a MetaMask impersonation page (risk: critical, 100/100); it was first detected on 2026-09-06. VirusTotal: 8/90 engines flag it. Listed on Spamhaus DBL. Treat the site as unsafe.
Is pollymarket.global safe to connect a wallet?
No. Do not connect a wallet, sign messages or approve tokens on pollymarket.global. 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 pollymarket.global?
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.

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.

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 pollymarket.global)
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
