The domain ada.markets was a phishing site engaged in brand impersonation targeting users of the cryptocurrency platform 'across'. It posed as a Cardano DEX aggregator under the name 'ADA Markets' to deceive victims into disclosing sensitive information or transferring cryptocurrency. As of the latest verification, ada.markets has been taken offline, but it previously operated as an elevated-risk scam with no associated drainer kit identified.
Technical indicators confirm the domain's malicious intent. Ada.markets was flagged by 1 of 95 VirusTotal security vendors, including SOCRadar, and appeared on 1 security blocklist (PhishDestroy). It was registered through NameCheap, Inc. on August 2, 2023, and resolved to the IP address 35.214.172.8, hosted by Google LLC in the Netherlands. The SSL certificate was issued by Let's Encrypt (R12), and the observed page title was 'ADA Markets - Cardano DEX Aggregator |'. Nameservers were ns1.siteground.net and ns2.siteground.net, and Gridinsoft assigned it a trust score of 0/100.
Users who interacted with ada.markets should assume their credentials or cryptocurrency may be compromised. For cryptocurrency-related exposure, revoke all token approvals and transfer funds to a new wallet. For credential phishing, change passwords immediately, enable two-factor authentication, and monitor accounts for unauthorized activity. Report the domain to platforms like Google Safe Browsing, PhishTank, or local cybercrime authorities to aid in takedown efforts and prevent further victimization.

Registrar accreditation and DNS abuse obligations
For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN accreditation agreement. The links below provide the official fee schedule and current DNS abuse compliance guidance.
Accreditation is a contract, not a safety certification.
RAA §3.18 establishes abuse-contact and handling requirements. This report can document stored outbound notices and later technical observations; it does not by itself establish receipt, investigation, remediation, or contractual non-compliance.
Saved certificate metadata. Certificate dates without a timezone are shown as stored. Transport encryption does not establish that the site is trustworthy.

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.

我应该为报告收集哪些信息？
联邦调查局（FBI）指南
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.
Your bank or payment provider — contact its fraud team promptly through official contact details if money or card information was exposed.
当地警方 — 即使无法立即采取行动，也能留下正式记录
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?
虚假网站 — 与正规网站完全一致的克隆网站，仅域名略有改动
猪的屠宰 — 通过Telegram/WhatsApp/交友软件花数周时间建立信任，随后钱被骗走
退款诈骗 — fraudsters pose as recovery agents and demand upfront fees. Never share a seed phrase or pay before independently verifying the provider
