catfee.network is an impersonation phishing site built around the CatFee name, aimed at crypto users who expect to reach the genuine service. PhishDestroy first flagged it on 2026-09-29. When last checked on 2026-10-19, the domain was online and still serving content. Its page title reads "Problem loading page", a browser-style error message, while we classify the site as impersonation phishing.
How the scam works
Impersonation sites like this copy a known brand's name and look so visitors believe they are on the official platform. They then ask for whatever unlocks the victim's money, such as account logins, wallet recovery phrases, private keys or a direct payment presented as a routine service step. Anything entered goes straight to the operators. Stolen credentials or seed phrases let them empty accounts and wallets, and transfers sent to the site cannot be recovered.
Evidence
On 2026-10-03, 7 of 91 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, LevelBlue, SOCRadar, URLQuery and VIPRE. That is a modest share, but these vendors reached their verdicts independently. The domain also appears in 4 AlienVault OTX threat pulses, which shows other researchers are tracking it. PhishDestroy is so far the only blocklist listing it, so many browsers and filters may still load the page without a warning.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-08-07 through GNAME.COM PTE. LTD., about seven weeks before we detected it. It resolves to an IP on the IQWeb FZ-LLC network, registered in Belize, which is unrelated to the brand whose name it uses. The site has a free Let's Encrypt certificate, so the browser padlock only means the connection is encrypted and says nothing about who runs the site.
What to do
If you typed a password on catfee.network, change it on the real service and on any account where you reused it, then turn on app-based 2FA. If you entered a recovery phrase or private key, treat that wallet as compromised and move any remaining funds to a new wallet created on a trusted device. Do not send further payments to the site for any reason. Defenders should block the domain and its hosting IP at DNS and proxy level and search logs for users who visited it.
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.

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
