aevos-protocol.net is an impersonation phishing site whose name is built to pass as an official domain for a crypto protocol. It targets DeFi users and wallet holders who arrive through search results, social media links or direct messages. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-10-06, and as of 2026-10-19 the site is still online, with its content sitting behind a protection layer.
How the scam works
Impersonation pages like this copy a protocol's look and wording, then push the visitor toward a single action. That action is usually connecting a wallet and signing a transaction or token approval, or typing a recovery phrase into a fake "restore" or "verify" form. Either one hands the operator control of the victim's funds. The page title currently reads "Just a moment...", which is a browser-check interstitial rather than branded content, while our classification is based on the impersonation scheme behind it.
Evidence
Six of 92 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain as of 2026-10-10: Abusix, alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Gridinsoft and SOCRadar. That is a low count, but these vendors work independently, and early-stage phishing domains often show this pattern before wider coverage catches up. The domain appears in three AlienVault OTX threat pulses, so other researchers are tracking it as well. Among blocklists, PhishDestroy currently lists it.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-09-24, just 12 days before PhishDestroy detected it, which fits the short lifespan typical of phishing campaigns. It is registered through Cloudflare, Inc. and served from Cloudflare's network (AS13335) in the US, so the origin server's real location is hidden behind the proxy. Its free Let's Encrypt certificate means the padlock in the browser says nothing about whether the site is legitimate.
What to do
If you connected a wallet to this site, use a token-approval checker to revoke any permissions you granted. Then move remaining assets to a new wallet. If you entered a seed phrase or private key, treat that wallet as compromised and transfer everything to a freshly generated wallet immediately, because revoking approvals will not protect it. Only reach the real protocol through its verified official channels and bookmarks. Defenders should block aevos-protocol.net at DNS and proxy level, look for lookalike domains containing the same name, and report it to Cloudflare's abuse team for takedown.

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.

After a phishing incident
针对受害者的建议与指导
Choose the steps that match what you shared. Keep a copy of this report alongside your own records.
我应该立即采取什么措施？
紧急
Stop using the suspicious site. Open the real service through its official app or an address you already trust.
更改所有密码 — 电子邮件、Exchange 账户，以及任何使用同一密码的账户
启用双因素认证 使用身份验证器应用（而非短信）。禁用基于短信的恢复功能
冻结卡片 如果您在钓鱼网站上输入了银行信息
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
