The domain swp.aace.finance, now offline, impersonates the Aave brand to execute a crypto drainer scam known as Angel Drainer. This site employs a wallet_connect_phish strategy targeting users within the cryptocurrency space. Despite its early takedown, PhishDestroy's detection pipeline identified the threat before it propagated to antivirus databases, evidenced by its 0 of 95 VirusTotal detections.
The phishing site mimicked Aave's open-source liquidity protocol interface, leveraging familiar branding to deceive users. It also included references to Ethereum, further enhancing its credibility among unsuspecting victims. The domain was registered through Cloudflare, Inc., and hosted on an IP address in the United States, under the organization AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.
While the site is no longer active, its early detection highlights the importance of rapid response in the cybersecurity landscape. PhishDestroy's proactive measures placed the domain on public blocklists, mitigating potential harm. This case underscores the critical 24-72 hour window post-registration, where phishing domains can operate undetected by traditional antivirus systems. By capturing threats like swp.aace.finance in this window, PhishDestroy helps protect users from emerging scams.

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.
This timeline displays historical security and status checkpoints observed by the PhishDestroy automated monitoring network. It records domain lifecycle updates, scanner changes, and threat telemetry over time.
11 recorded events. These records describe collected evidence, outgoing notifications and publication; they do not confirm a complete investigation or a takedown.

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 — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
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
