Security engines reporting a detection: 2. Public blocklists reporting a match: 2. Exercise extreme caution — do not enter credentials or personal information.
walletextension.net is a domain flagged by PhishDestroy and added to multiple blocklists including MetaMask and SEAL. PhishDestroy first observed the site on 2026-10-19. The domain hosts a page that is currently unreachable but remains active. The site was registered on 2026-10-14 and has been active for only a few days.
How the scam works
The domain name suggests an imitation of a wallet extension service, which may mislead users into installing malicious software or entering sensitive credentials. While the current page content is unreachable, the combination of a newly registered domain, low detections, and multiple blocklist inclusions indicates a high risk of phishing or fraudulent activity aimed at crypto wallet users.

Infrastructure

Registration & observation details1
Availability observations
Last reachable observation
An estimated time describes an observation window. It does not prove a registrar action or the exact moment a site became unavailable.
Stored observation history1
Dated changes retained by the monitor and source collectors. Newest observations appear first; source states are not proof of a takedown.
Stored relationships are grouped by the exact matching attribute. A shared provider or registrar alone does not prove common ownership.

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 walletextension.net)
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
