appde1.exchange presents itself as a decentralized crypto swap aggregator under the branding "De¹", targeting DeFi users who are looking for competitive token swap rates. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-08-20, roughly two weeks after the domain was registered on 2026-08-05. As of 2026-10-18 the site remains fully live with active content, meaning it is still capable of stealing funds from anyone who visits and interacts with it.
How the scam works
The site mimics a legitimate decentralized exchange aggregator, enticing visitors with promises of the best swap returns across DeFi protocols. When a user connects their crypto wallet to execute a trade, the underlying drainer contract requests broad token approvals or triggers a malicious transaction that transfers assets out of the wallet rather than performing any real swap. The victim loses tokens, NFTs, or native currency — often in a single transaction — with no recourse once the transfer is confirmed on-chain.
Evidence
VirusTotal flagged appde1.exchange with 4 detections out of 91 engines as of 2026-10-06; the vendors identifying it as malicious are alphaMountain.ai, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, and SOCRadar. Four OTX threat-intelligence pulses also reference this domain. It appears on the PhishDestroy blocklist. Detection coverage is relatively low in absolute numbers, which reflects how recently the site emerged rather than any doubt about its nature.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-08-05 through Name.com, Inc. and is hosted on IP 81.90.25.150 within the NODE HOST LIMITED network in Germany. TLS is provided by Let's Encrypt under issuer YE2, a free certificate that requires no identity verification and is routinely used to make fraudulent sites appear legitimate.
What to do
If you visited the site but did not connect a wallet, no immediate action is required beyond avoiding any return visit. If you connected a wallet, immediately revoke all token approvals granted to any contract associated with this site using a trusted approval-management tool, then move remaining assets to a fresh wallet address. If you signed a transaction, treat the connected wallet as compromised and transfer funds out before the drainer can execute further. Security teams and wallet providers should add appde1.exchange to blocklists and push alerts to users who may have interacted with it.

After a phishing incident
Rekomendasi & Saran bagi Para Korban
Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.
Apa yang harus saya lakukan segera?
Mendesak
Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.
Ubah semua kata sandi — email, akun Exchange, apa pun yang menggunakan kata sandi yang sama
Aktifkan 2FA menggunakan aplikasi otentikator (bukan SMS). Nonaktifkan pemulihan berbasis SMS
Kartu pembeku jika Anda telah memasukkan detail perbankan di situs phishing tersebut
Informasi apa saja yang sebaiknya saya kumpulkan untuk laporan saya?
Pedoman FBI
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.
Tanggal dan waktu yang tepat — dari setiap transaksi dan kontak pertama dengan penipu
Tangkapan layar — situs web penipuan, pesan obrolan, email, transaksi dompet digital, media sosial
Semua URL & domain digunakan oleh penipu (termasuk appde1.exchange)
Komunikasi — email, pesan teks, nomor telepon, dan nama pengguna yang digunakan oleh penipu tersebut
Meskipun kamu belum mengetahui semua detailnya — tetap saja ajukan laporan. Informasi yang tidak lengkap tetap dapat membantu penyelidikan.
Ke mana saya harus melaporkan penipuan ini?
FBI IC3 — Pusat Pengaduan Kejahatan Internet (Laporan tingkat federal AS)
Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
Polisi setempat — membuat catatan resmi, meskipun mereka tidak dapat bertindak segera
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?
Situs web palsu — salinan yang persis sama dengan situs asli, dengan domain yang sedikit diubah
Pemotongan babi — kepercayaan yang dibangun selama beberapa minggu melalui Telegram/WhatsApp/aplikasi kencan, lalu uangnya dicuri
Penipuan pemulihan — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
Penipuan yang didukung oleh kecerdasan buatan — deepfakes, serangan phishing otomatis, dan situs yang dihasilkan oleh kecerdasan buatan (AI) yang membuat penipuan semakin sulit dideteksi
Bagaimana cara saya melindungi diri di masa depan?
Tandai situs resmi — jangan pernah mengklik tautan dari email, pesan langsung (DM), atau iklan
Memverifikasi domain — periksa PhishDestroy Sebelum berinteraksi. Periksa HTTPS, ejaan, dan usia domain
"Terlalu bagus untuk jadi kenyataan" = penipuan — imbal hasil yang dijamin, dukungan dari selebriti, tenggat waktu yang mendesak
