Cómo opera la estafa.
myetherwallet.adac se presenta como una interfaz funcional de wallet de Ethereum, dirigida a usuarios familiarizados con las herramientas web para gestionar Ether y tokens ERC-20. El nombre de dominio está construido para parecerse a un servicio de wallet bien establecido lo suficiente como para que los usuarios que llegan a través de resultados de búsqueda, enlaces compartidos o errores tipográficos no adviertan la discrepancia antes de interactuar con el sitio. La presentación superficial es coherente con un portal legítimo de acceso a wallets, que es el mecanismo principal por el cual el operador atrae tráfico.
Las operaciones de este tipo se basan en el robo de credenciales y no en la explotación directa. A los usuarios que creen estar accediendo a una interfaz de wallet genuina se les solicita ingresar una clave privada, una frase semilla o un archivo keystore para desbloquear o acceder a sus fondos. Una vez enviada, esa información pasa al operador, quien obtiene un control completo y prácticamente irrecuperable sobre cualquier fondo asociado. En el momento de la captura no se produce ninguna transacción visible del lado de la víctima; el único requisito técnico del sitio es el envío funcional de un formulario.
El compromiso suele hacerse evidente cuando las víctimas observan transacciones salientes que no autorizaron. Para ese momento, los activos por lo general ya han sido trasladados a direcciones controladas por el operador. El sitio puede permanecer activo para seguir capturando a más visitantes, o puede ser abandonado una vez que atrae la atención de los investigadores. Dado que el operador obtuvo credenciales válidas en lugar de explotar una vulnerabilidad de software, los mecanismos habituales de disputa y reversión no son aplicables, y la ventana para cualquier intervención significativa es estrecha.
Banderas rojas que documentamos.
- 01Domain Impersonation PatternThe domain name replicates the branding of a widely-recognised Ethereum wallet service with only minor alteration, a textbook typosquatting signal. Legitimate wallet providers do not operate through look-alike domains, and the resemblance serves no purpose other than to mislead users who are seeking the genuine service.
- 02Non-Standard Top-Level Domain in UseThe .adac suffix is not a recognised generic or country-code top-level domain in common use. Operators sometimes register atypical domain extensions to reduce the likelihood of automated detection while preserving enough visual similarity to the target brand to remain plausible at a glance.
- 03CryptoScamDB Blacklist InclusionThe domain is recorded in the CryptoScamDB community blacklist, which aggregates independently reported fraudulent cryptocurrency URLs and addresses. Inclusion indicates the site has been assessed and flagged as malicious by external reviewers, not only by CryptoLeek.
- 04Credential-Harvesting ArchitectureWallet impersonation operations are structurally oriented around a single objective: capturing private keys or seed phrases. Unlike investment platforms that sustain contact over weeks, these sites require only one successful submission to achieve full, permanent access to the victim's holdings.
- 05No Traceable Operator AccountabilityA platform built on a deceptive look-alike domain carries no public regulatory or custodial accountability. Once the operator abandons or rotates the domain, attribution becomes substantially more difficult, which is a structural feature of this fraud category rather than an incidental outcome.
Lo que puedes hacer ahora.
Open a free 24-hour case assessment with CryptoLeek +
Tell us what happened. A senior analyst reads your file within 24 hours and replies with an honest yes/no/conditional on recovery. The assessment is free. If we cannot recover the funds we say so plainly, including which (free) regulator channel you should use instead. If we accept the case, we open a numbered case file and issue a written quote for a flat investigation retainer before any work begins, scoped to case complexity, the jurisdictions involved, and the on-chain trail.
Trace your funds on-chain with our analysts +
We trace stolen crypto across BTC, ETH, EVM L2s, Solana, Tron, and major stablecoins using the same toolchain as regulators and tier-1 exchange compliance teams. The output is a forensic report anchored to specific transaction hashes and block heights, the evidence that exchanges, payment processors, and counsel actually act on. Recovery starts here.
Recover with counsel where civil action makes sense +
Where the trace lands in a jurisdiction with cooperative banks and courts, we coordinate with bar-licensed counsel in our 40+ jurisdiction network for civil action and asset-freezing orders (Mareva-style). Counsel bill you directly; the CryptoLeek investigation retainer is independent of counsel fees. The outcome is funds released back to your nominated wallet or bank account.
