pumpffun.trade is an impersonation phishing domain. Its name is a doubled-letter twist on Pump.fun, the memecoin launchpad, and the .trade ending adds a trading feel aimed at people hunting new token launches. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-09-17. As of 2026-10-19 the domain still resolves, but its page content could not be loaded.
How the scam works
Lookalike launchpad sites copy the real interface and push visitors to connect a wallet to buy, launch or claim a token. The connection request is then followed by a signature or transaction that hands control of tokens to the operator, or by prompts that harvest login details or seed phrases. Victims lose whatever the signed permission or exposed credentials allow the attacker to move. The page currently returns the title "403 Forbidden" rather than a launchpad clone, while our classification is impersonation phishing.
Evidence
On 2026-09-27, VirusTotal showed 6 of 91 engines flagging the domain: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, LevelBlue and SOCRadar. That count is modest, so many browsers and filters will not warn visitors yet. Four AlienVault OTX threat pulses reference the domain, meaning other researchers have tied it to malicious activity. PhishDestroy is the only blocklist listing it so far.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-09-13 through Global Domain Group LLC, just four days before we detected it. That quick turnaround is typical of throwaway phishing domains set up for a short campaign. It is hosted at 94.156.102.29 on the PLAY2GO INTERNATIONAL LIMITED network in Germany. Its Let's Encrypt certificate gives it a browser padlock, but that only means the connection is encrypted. It says nothing about who runs the site.
What to do
Reach Pump.fun only through a bookmarked or verified address, and never through links shared in chats or replies. If you connected a wallet to pumpffun.trade, move your remaining funds to a fresh wallet. Revoke any permissions or delegations granted during that session. If you typed a seed phrase or private key, treat that wallet as fully compromised. If you entered a password, change it and reset two-factor authentication. Defenders should block the domain and its IP, and watch DNS and proxy logs for other doubled-letter Pump.fun variants.

After a phishing incident
Raccomandazioni e consigli per le vittime
Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.
Cosa devo fare subito?
Urgente
Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.
Modifica tutte le password — e-mail, account Exchange, qualsiasi servizio che utilizzi la stessa password
Abilita l'autenticazione a due fattori (2FA) utilizzando un'app di autenticazione (non via SMS). Disattiva il recupero tramite SMS
Carte congelate se hai inserito i tuoi dati bancari sul sito di phishing
Quali informazioni devo raccogliere per la mia relazione?
Linee guida dell'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.
Date e orari esatti — di ogni transazione e del primo contatto con il truffatore
Schermate — siti web truffaldini, messaggi in chat, e-mail, transazioni tramite portafoglio digitale, social media
Tutti gli URL e i domini utilizzato dal truffatore (tra cui pumpffun.trade)
Comunicazioni — e-mail, SMS, numeri di telefono, nomi utente utilizzati dal truffatore
Anche se non conosci tutti i dettagli — sporgere comunque denuncia. Anche le informazioni parziali sono comunque utili alle indagini.
A chi devo segnalare la truffa?
FBI IC3 — Internet Crime Complaint Center (sistema di segnalazione federale degli Stati Uniti)
Europol — Segnalazioni relative alla criminalità informatica in Europa (UE)
Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
Polizia locale — crea un documento ufficiale, anche se non è in grado di agire immediatamente
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?
Siti web fasulli — cloni perfetti, al pixel, di siti legittimi con domini leggermente modificati
Macellazione dei suini — fiducia conquistata nel corso di settimane tramite Telegram/WhatsApp/app di incontri, per poi rubare i soldi
Truffe legate al recupero dei fondi — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
Truffe basate sull'intelligenza artificiale — i deepfake, il phishing automatizzato e i siti generati dall’intelligenza artificiale rendono più difficile individuare le frodi
Come posso proteggermi in futuro?
Aggiungi i siti ufficiali ai preferiti — Non cliccare mai sui link contenuti nelle e-mail, nei messaggi diretti o negli annunci pubblicitari
Verifica i domini — controllare PhishDestroy prima di interagire. Verifica l'HTTPS, l'ortografia e l'età del dominio
"Troppo bello per essere vero" = truffa — rendimenti garantiti, testimonial di personaggi famosi, scadenze urgenti
