us-exodus.org is an impersonation phishing domain that poses as Exodus, the popular self-custodial crypto wallet. The "us-" prefix is meant to suggest an official regional site to Exodus users. PhishDestroy first detected it on 2026-09-14. On 2026-10-19 the domain was still online and serving a redirect.
How the scam works
Fake Exodus sites usually claim that the user needs to restore, verify, update or sync their wallet. The victim is then asked for their 12-word recovery phrase or wallet password. Anyone holding that phrase controls the wallet, so the attacker can empty every supported asset in it without further interaction. The page title we captured reads "Attention Required! | Cloudflare", which is a Cloudflare challenge screen, not Exodus-branded content. We classify the domain as Exodus impersonation regardless of that title.
Evidence
Seven of 89 VirusTotal engines flagged the domain as of 2026-09-21: alphaMountain.ai, Chong Lua Dao, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, Gridinsoft and SOCRadar. That count is modest, but more weight comes from the specialist crypto lists. MetaMask's blocklist and SEAL both carry the domain alongside PhishDestroy. Spamhaus lists it in its domain blocklist under the phishing category (DBL_PHISH). It also appears in four AlienVault OTX threat pulses.
Infrastructure
The domain was registered on 2026-07-26 through Hosting Concepts B.V. d/b/a Registrar.eu. That is about seven weeks before PhishDestroy detected it, a short life typical of disposable phishing domains. It resolves to Cloudflare, Inc. infrastructure geolocated to Canada, which hides the real origin server. Its TLS certificate from Google Trust Services means visitors see a padlock icon, and that icon says nothing about whether the site is legitimate.
What to do
If you typed your Exodus recovery phrase into this site, treat the wallet as compromised. Create a new wallet with a fresh phrase on a clean device and move any remaining funds there right away. If you entered only a password, change it and check the wallet for unfamiliar transactions. If you connected any Web3 wallet to the site, review and revoke token approvals you do not recognize. Exodus never asks for your recovery phrase through a website. Defenders should block us-exodus.org at the DNS and proxy level and watch for similar regional-prefix Exodus lookalikes.

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
