How the scam operates.
myetherwallet.agency menampilkan dirinya sebagai antarmuka wallet Ethereum, dengan meminjam nama domainnya nyaris seluruhnya dari sebuah merek yang sudah mapan dan dikenal luas di ranah wallet self-custody. Tampilan permukaannya menyasar para pemegang Ethereum yang ingin mengakses langsung wallet mereka, khususnya pengguna yang tiba melalui URL yang salah ketik, tautan phishing yang disisipkan di media sosial, atau iklan pencarian yang menipu. Konvensi penamaan ini dirancang untuk menciptakan anggapan keabsahan sebelum korban memiliki kesempatan sedikit pun untuk meneliti kredensial operatornya.
Operasi semacam ini bekerja dengan menyalin antarmuka visual dari merek yang ditiru, lalu meminta private key, seed phrase, atau kredensial wallet dari pengunjung yang mengira mereka sedang berinteraksi dengan layanan asli. Sebagian varian mengarahkan korban melalui alur koneksi wallet yang memberikan wewenang penandatanganan atas aset kepada operator. Varian lainnya menyajikan formulir pemanenan kredensial statis yang meneruskan data yang dikirimkan ke titik pengumpulan jarak jauh. Kedua metode tersebut sama-sama mengakibatkan kehilangan total atas dana yang tersimpan di wallet yang telah disusupi.
Korban umumnya baru menyadari penipuan ini setelah wallet mereka dikuras. Pada saat pelanggaran terdeteksi, operator biasanya telah memindahkan dana curian melalui beberapa alamat perantara, kerap mengonversi aset lintas chain untuk mengaburkan jejaknya. Ketiadaan identitas operator yang dapat dilacak, registrasi perusahaan, maupun kontak dukungan pelanggan berarti tidak ada pihak sah yang dapat dihubungi, dan jendela waktu untuk intervensi di tingkat blockchain pun menutup dengan cepat.
Red flags we documented.
- 01Brand Impersonation Through Domain ConstructionThe domain reproduces the name of a recognised Ethereum wallet service almost verbatim, differing only in its top-level domain. This is a textbook typosquatting and brand-impersonation pattern, designed to intercept users who mistype a URL, follow a phishing link, or encounter the domain in manipulated search results before any scepticism is triggered.
- 02CryptoScamDB Blacklist ConfirmationThe domain appears on the CryptoScamDB community blacklist, a publicly maintained registry used by wallet software, browser extensions, and security researchers to identify malicious cryptocurrency infrastructure. Presence on this list reflects a documented community determination of fraudulent intent.
- 03Non-Standard TLD for a Wallet-Branded OperationLegitimate cryptocurrency wallet interfaces operate from primary, well-established domains. The use of a non-standard top-level domain such as .agency to replicate an existing wallet brand name is a structural signal of fraudulent intent. No established wallet operator would adopt this naming pattern for a genuine product.
- 04No Verifiable Operator IdentityOperations of this type characteristically lack any traceable corporate registration, regulatory authorisation, or identifiable team. The absence of verifiable accountability is not merely suspicious; it is a practical prerequisite for operators who intend to exit without consequence once funds have been collected.
- 05Private Key Solicitation PatternImpersonator wallet platforms in this category solicit the most sensitive data a cryptocurrency holder possesses: private keys or seed phrases. Any platform requesting this information is either the genuine original service or a fraud. Given this domain's blacklist status and impersonation structure, only one conclusion is warranted.
What you can do now.
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.
