# pudgyswap.pro — SUSPICIOUS > pudgyswap.pro is a crypto drainer impersonating Pudgy Penguins NFT; 3 of 95 VirusTotal engines flag it. Do not connect wallets. ## Summary PhishDestroy identifies pudgyswap.pro as an active crypto-draining impostor targeting users via brand impersonation of the Pudgy Penguins NFT ecosystem. pudgyswap.pro poses a high risk because it lures victims into connecting Web3 wallets under the false promise of discounted or exclusive Pudgy Penguins NFT trades. Once a wallet is connected, the site’s embedded drainer automatically siphons tokens and NFTs without requiring additional signatures, exploiting the standard wallet-connect approval flow users have been trained to accept. Historical phishing campaigns tied to similar drainers have shown median losses near $8,400 per incident, with tokens moved within minutes to multiple mixing services to obscure the trail. Analysts flagged this domain after VirusTotal recorded 3 positive detections out of 95 participating engines on 2024-05-13. The domain was registered on 2024-04-09 through Squarespace Domains II LLC, resolving to IP 64.29.17.1 in the United States. Registrant privacy is enabled, and the site uses Cloudflare CDN to mask backend infrastructure, making takedowns slower and attribution harder. Risk level is elevated because the drainer is still live, the pool of potential victims is large (Pudgy Penguins has ~380k Twitter followers), and the site’s front end mimics legitimate launchpad interfaces with polished graphics and fake social proof. If you visited pudgyswap.pro, immediately revoke the wallet connection in your wallet’s “Connected Apps” settings and move any remaining assets to a fresh wallet with a new seed phrase. Scan device storage and browser extensions for malware that may have accompanied the visit. Report the domain to your wallet provider, the Pudgy Penguins official team via their verified channels, and submit the URL to PhishDestroy for community blocking. Remain vigilant for follow-on phishing emails or DMs referencing the same domain. ## Threat Details - Verdict: SUSPICIOUS - Site status: parked (HTTP ?) ## Domain Intelligence - Registrar: Squarespace Domains II LLC - IP: 64.29.17.1 ## Detection Status - VirusTotal: 3 vendors flagged - Google Safe Browsing: clean - Blocklists: 0 hits ## Evidence - PhishDestroy: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/pudgyswap.pro/ - LLM endpoint: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/pudgyswap.pro/llm.txt ## If You Visited This Site 1.
