tornado-cash.net is an impersonation phishing page. Its domain borrows the Tornado Cash name, which puts it in front of crypto users looking for that privacy tool, while the page itself carries Cloudflare branding. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-10-07. As of 2026-10-19 the site was still online, with its content reachable but sitting behind a protection layer.
How the scam works
Visitors who arrive expecting Tornado Cash get a page titled "Attention Required! | Cloudflare", the familiar wording of a browser security check. Impersonation pages like this rely on borrowed trust. A screen that looks like a routine Cloudflare verification lowers a visitor's guard, so the next prompt seems legitimate, whether it asks them to connect a wallet, sign a request or enter details. The page title shows a Cloudflare challenge screen, and we classify the site as an impersonation phishing page.
Evidence
On VirusTotal, 4 of 92 engines flag the domain as of 2026-10-19: alphaMountain.ai, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft and SOCRadar. That count is low, so most scanners would still let it through. The wallet-security listings carry more weight. Besides PhishDestroy, the domain is blocked by MetaMask and SEAL, both of which focus on crypto threats. It also appears in 2 AlienVault OTX threat pulses, so other researchers have tracked it independently.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-08-30 through Hosting Concepts B.V. d/b/a Registrar.eu, 38 days before PhishDestroy detected it. That gap suggests it was set up in advance rather than spun up and used the same day. The site resolves to 188.114.97.1 on AS13335 (Cloudflare, Inc.) in the US. Because that network fronts the site, the origin server stays hidden from public view.
What to do
Do not use this domain for anything related to Tornado Cash, and do not trust a verification screen just because it carries Cloudflare branding. If you connected a wallet or signed anything there, revoke the token approvals that site was granted. If any approval may have leaked, move your funds to a new wallet. If you typed a password or seed phrase, treat it as compromised: change the password and turn on 2FA, or abandon the wallet entirely if it was the seed phrase. Defenders should block tornado-cash.net and 188.114.97.1-based lookups tied to it at DNS and proxy level. Its low VirusTotal score means you cannot rely on vendor feeds alone to catch it.

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.

How do phishing scams typically work?
가짜 웹사이트 — 도메인을 약간만 변경한, 정식 사이트와 픽셀 단위로 완벽하게 일치하는 복제 사이트
pig butchering — Telegram·왓츠앱·데이트 앱을 통해 몇 주에 걸쳐 신뢰를 쌓은 뒤, 돈을 훔쳐갔다
회복 사기 — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
AI를 이용한 사기 — 딥페이크, 자동화된 피싱, AI로 생성된 사이트 등으로 인해 사기 행각을 적발하기가 더 어려워지고 있다
앞으로 어떻게 하면 스스로를 지킬 수 있을까요?
