Network Security Intelligence Registrar context
Registrar contextNameSilo
Stored registration data identifies NameSilo as the registrar. PhishDestroy maintains separate registrar investigations; that broader material is contextual and is not an independent detection for this domain.
PhishDestroy’s intake AI classified xswapprotocol.xyz as malicious because the page markets itself as a decentralized exchange aggregator, using language typical of cryptocurrency investment scams. The domain was first observed by PhishDestroy on 2026-10-23, returning an HTTP 200 response and displaying the title “Xswap Protocol Explained (2026) — Guide & FAQ | Xswapprotocol.”
How the scam works
Fake exchange or aggregator sites lure users with promises of optimal rates and seamless swaps, then request wallet connections or direct crypto deposits that can be drained once the user authorizes a transaction.
Evidence
VirusTotal scanned the domain on 2026-10-17 and recorded one suspicious detection (alphaMountain.ai labeling it as spam) out of 92 engines. Google Safe Browsing checked on 2026-10-23 and did not flag the site. URLScan captured the page on 2026-10-20 and returned a clean verdict. External blocklists MetaMask and SEAL listed the domain, OTX reported two pulses, and PhishDestroy’s internal blocklist marked it as malicious on 2026-10-23.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered with NameSilo on 2026-09-21, 32 days before first observation, and used the nameservers ns1‑ns3.dnsowl.com. The recorded IP address was 107.189.15.173, associated with RouterHosting LLC in the Netherlands, and the site presented a Let’s Encrypt certificate valid until 2026-12-20, with ports 22, 80 and 443 observed open.
What to do
Visitors should avoid entering any wallet credentials or approving transactions on the site; if credentials were entered, change associated passwords immediately. Organizations should add xswapprotocol.xyz to blocklists or firewall rules, monitor DNS and proxy logs for connections, and keep threat‑intel feeds updated.

Is xswapprotocol.xyz safe to connect a wallet?
No. Do not connect a wallet, sign messages or approve tokens on xswapprotocol.xyz. Phishing sites ask for approvals (approve, setApprovalForAll, Permit2) that let the operator move your assets, and a confirmed transaction cannot be reversed.

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 xswapprotocol.xyz)
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
