Evidence Summary

CRITICAL
Evidence score
85/100

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While the site is no longer active, its early detection highlights the importance of rapid response in the cybersecurity landscape.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.

Recommendations & Advice for Victims

An estimated $51 billion flowed to illicit crypto wallets in 2024 (source). If you interacted with swp.aace.finance — act now.

What should I do immediately?
Urgent
  • Revoke token approvals — use revoke.cash to remove access granted to malicious smart contracts
  • Move remaining funds to a brand-new wallet. The compromised wallet is no longer safe
  • 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

According to the FBI, the most important details are transaction data:

  • Cryptocurrency addresses — scammer's wallet (e.g., 0x5856...35985)
  • Amount & crypto type — exact amount (e.g., 1.02345 ETH, 0.5 BTC, 500 USDT)
  • Transaction ID (hash) — the unique blockchain transaction identifier
  • 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 swp.aace.finance)
  • 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)
  • Europol — European cybercrime reporting (EU)
  • Chainabuse — flag scam wallets across exchanges & platforms
  • Your crypto exchange — notify its fraud team immediately; it may be able to preserve records or restrict funds held on its platform
  • 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 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
