pancakeswwap.digital

This domain, pancakeswwap.digital, is identified as a high-risk brand impersonation threat targeting PancakeSwap, a decentralized finance (DeFi) exchange. Analysis indicates the site mimics the legitimate PancakeSwap interface, as evidenced by the page title 'Home | PancakeSwap,' to deceive users into connecting wallets or entering sensitive credentials. The infrastructure is designed to facilitate cryptocurrency theft, a common tactic in DeFi-related fraud schemes. Infrastructure analysis reveals multiple technical indicators of compromise. The domain is flagged by 18 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, indicating widespread detection as malicious. It is registered through Cloudflare, Inc., and resolves to the IP address 104.21.42.36, hosted on AS13335 (Cloudflare, Inc.) in the United States. The domain lacks an SSL certificate, a critical security gap that exposes user data to interception. It appears on three security blocklists and is actively blocked by threat intelligence feeds such as PhishDestroy, ScamSniffer, and PhishingDB. As of the latest assessment, pancakeswwap.digital has been taken offline, reducing immediate risk to users. However, the domain remains registered, and the infrastructure could be reactivated or repurposed for future malicious campaigns. Users who interacted with the site should assume credential or wallet compromise and take immediate action, including revoking wallet permissions, rotating passwords, and monitoring for unauthorized transactions. The absence of SSL and the use of Cloudflare-hosted infrastructure suggest a low-effort but high-impact attack vector, typical of opportunistic threat actors targeting DeFi platforms.
