applup.com poses as a download portal for imToken, the popular multi-chain mobile wallet. Its Chinese page title, "im钱包下载-imtoken下载地址" ("im wallet download, imToken download address"), shows it targets Chinese-speaking users searching for the app outside official stores. PhishDestroy first flagged the domain on 2026-09-12. As of 2026-10-19 the site was still alive and serving a redirect, so it remains a live threat.
How the scam works
Fake wallet download pages like this one copy the look of the official imToken site and offer an "installer" or app package. In this kind of scheme, the delivered app is a tampered build that looks and works like the real wallet but sends the recovery phrase or private keys to the operators when the user creates or imports a wallet. Once the attackers have the seed, they can empty every address it controls on any chain, and blockchain transfers cannot be reversed. Anyone who has entered an existing seed phrase into an app from this site should assume that wallet is fully compromised.
Evidence
On 2026-09-22, 15 of 89 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain. The flagging vendors include BitDefender, ESET, Fortinet, Emsisoft, G-Data, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft and alphaMountain.ai. ScamSniffer, a feed focused on Web3 threats, lists it alongside PhishDestroy. It also appears in 4 AlienVault OTX threat pulses, so other researchers have independently tracked it.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2024-12-27 through Gname.com Pte. Ltd., about twenty months before PhishDestroy detected it. That gap suggests a domain that was held or reused rather than spun up for a single burst. Traffic is routed through Cloudflare, Inc. on an address geolocated to Canada, which hides the true origin server. The free Let's Encrypt certificate means the padlock in the browser says nothing about whether the site is legitimate.
What to do
Do not download anything from applup.com. If you installed a wallet app from it, uninstall it. Then use the genuine imToken app from an official source on a clean device to create a brand-new wallet with a new recovery phrase, and move your remaining funds there immediately. Never reuse the old seed, and revoke token approvals granted from the affected addresses, because the attackers may still be able to use them. Defenders should block the domain at DNS and proxy level, watch for imToken-themed lookalike download sites, and report the domain to Cloudflare and the registrar.

Availability, content, DNS and registration are independent evidence layers. NXDOMAIN, an unreachable origin or missing content alone does not prove registrar action. A registrar or provider is credited only when a direct technical marker identifies that actor. Report causality is shown separately.
