atlasswap.io presents itself as a cryptocurrency swapping platform under the branding "AtlasSwap — The World's Atlas of Crypto Swapping," targeting DeFi users who believe they are interacting with a legitimate exchange. PhishDestroy first identified it on 2026-09-19, and as of 2026-10-18 the site remains live and reachable. There is no known legitimate AtlasSwap brand this site is associated with, making it a wholly fabricated service built to deceive.
How the scam works
Crypto drainers disguised as swap platforms lure users by offering token exchange functionality that requires connecting a Web3 wallet. Once a victim connects their wallet and approves a transaction — often framed as a necessary step to enable swapping — the underlying drainer contract silently transfers all approved tokens or the wallet's entire balance to an attacker-controlled address. The victim loses funds instantly and often without any visible error or warning from the fake interface.
Evidence
Six of 91 engines on VirusTotal flagged atlasswap.io as malicious as of 2026-09-29, with detections from alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar, and VIPRE. While the detection count is moderate rather than high, the quality of flagging vendors — including threat-intelligence specialists SOCRadar and CRDF — carries significant weight. The domain also appears across four OTX threat-intelligence pulses and is actively blocked by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL, providing strong independent corroboration of the drainer classification.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-03-12 through NAMECHEAP INC, giving it roughly six months of existence before detection. It is hosted on Amazon.com, Inc. infrastructure in the United States at IP 64.29.17.65. TLS is provided by Let's Encrypt under the YR2 intermediate, a free certificate that requires no identity verification.
What to do
If you visited atlasswap.io but did not connect a wallet, no immediate action is required beyond avoiding the site. If you connected a wallet, immediately revoke all token approvals granted to any contract associated with this site using a trusted approval-revocation tool, then transfer remaining assets to a fresh wallet address. If you submitted any personal or financial information, monitor associated accounts for unauthorized activity. Defenders and security teams should ensure atlasswap.io is blocked at the DNS and proxy layer and add the associated IP 64.29.17.65 to threat-intelligence feeds.

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.
