Crypto scam / wallet-drainer
Flagged on major browser safety blocklists as social engineering. Signals match fake investment platforms and wallet drainers. Never connect a wallet, paste a seed phrase, or deposit crypto here.
Is arc-claim.pages.dev legit or a scam?
Brand-new domain pushing a fake USDC airdrop on Arc Network, flagged as phishing by BitDefender, Fortinet and five other engines.
These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.
Wallet-drainer patterns detected
This page uses language and API references consistent with modern crypto wallet-drainer kits. If you connected your wallet or signed a transaction on this site, assume your wallet is compromised — revoke approvals, move funds to a fresh wallet with a new seed phrase, and treat the original as burned.

Analysis Summary
Website Preview

Automated page render — captured in a safe sandbox. What an ordinary visitor would see when loading the site.
Intelligence
The page title and body text promote an airdrop claim for USDC on Arc Network and include a Connect Wallet button. The domain arc-claim.pages.dev was registered today, which is an extremely short lifespan for any legitimate service. Twelve antivirus engines, including BitDefender, Fortinet, CyRadar and G-Data, all classify the page as phishing. The browser blocklist also flags the site for social engineering. No contact details, business address or phone number appear anywhere on the page. These signals together indicate the site is designed to trick users into connecting a wallet so funds can be drained.

What to do
Crypto scam / wallet-drainer indicators
The page shows patterns common to crypto-investment scams, fake airdrops, and wallet drainers.
- Do not interact with arc-claim.pages.dev
Do not enter credentials, deposit money, download files, or install browser extensions from this site.
- Never paste your seed phrase anywhere
Legitimate wallets, exchanges and support staff will never ask for your 12/24-word recovery phrase. Typing it into any website — even one that looks real — gives attackers full access to your funds.
- If you already connected a wallet
Revoke token approvals immediately using revoke.cash or Etherscan's Token Approvals tool. Move remaining funds to a fresh wallet (new seed phrase). Assume the original wallet is compromised.
- OpenReport the wallet and URL
File a report at IC3 (FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center) or your country's cybercrime portal. Recovery is unlikely, but reports help law enforcement map the network.
Safer Alternatives
Trying to handle crypto? Use a safe option instead
Dealing with crypto? Use a regulated, well-established exchange rather than an unknown site — and never connect your wallet or enter a seed phrase on a page you can't verify.
Publicly-listed, regulated US exchange.
Long-established, regulated exchange.
Regulated US exchange & custodian.
Suggestions for safety only — not endorsements. Always verify the address bar before signing in or paying, even on well-known sites.

This is a fake airdrop site that prompts users to connect a wallet. The domain was registered today and 12 of 92 engines flag it as phishing.
Safety FAQ
Common questions, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.
- arc-claim.pages.dev shows every sign of being a crypto fraud — do not deposit funds or connect a wallet. Our review tagged it for airdrop drainer and crypto drainer. 12 of 92 security engines flag it (12 as outright malicious). The domain is only 0 days old — a fresh registration is a classic scam fingerprint. This pattern matches throwaway sites built to take money or data and disappear.
- No — arc-claim.pages.dev scored just 1/100 on our trust scale, and we detected active threat indicators. We recommend avoiding it entirely: don't log in, pay, download anything, or connect a wallet.
- If you've already paid or handed over details on arc-claim.pages.dev, act quickly. 1) Cryptocurrency payments are almost always irreversible, so a bank chargeback usually won't apply — instead report the wallet address to the exchange you sent from and ask them to flag it. 2) Report the site to the U.S. FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov or the FBI's IC3 at ic3.gov, and in the UK to Action Fraud at actionfraud.police.uk. 3) If you entered a password, change it on arc-claim.pages.dev and anywhere you reused it, and turn on two-factor authentication. 4) Watch your bank and email for follow-up fraud, and keep screenshots as evidence.
- Possibly, but it's difficult. Crypto transfers can't be reversed like card payments, so recovery usually depends on the receiving exchange freezing the funds — report the wallet address and transaction ID to that exchange and to IC3 (ic3.gov) as fast as you can. Be very wary of "recovery agents" who contact you promising to get your crypto back; that is almost always a second scam targeting victims.
- Signals point to a high-risk crypto scam rather than a genuine platform. Warning signs we look for — guaranteed or unrealistic returns, pressure to deposit quickly, fake celebrity or exchange endorsements, and demands to send crypto to a wallet you don't control — are hallmarks of Ponzi-style and "pig-butchering" fraud. A real platform never guarantees profits, and no legitimate service asks you to send crypto to "unlock" a withdrawal.
- You can report arc-claim.pages.dev through several official channels: the U.S. FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov, the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) at ic3.gov, and — in the UK — Action Fraud at actionfraud.police.uk. You can also flag it to Google Safe Browsing (safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish) so other browsers warn about it, and report it to the company being impersonated if there is one. Reporting helps get scam sites taken down faster.
- Modern scams are built to look convincing. A valid SSL padlock, a polished template, stock photos, fake reviews, and a trust badge can all be added in minutes and prove nothing about who runs the site. Scammers buy cheap domains, clone real designs, and copy legal pages wholesale. That's exactly why an automated review that checks the domain's age, hosting, blacklists, and behaviour — rather than just how the page looks — is more reliable than a first impression.
- Yes. 12 of 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network flagged arc-claim.pages.dev, 12 of them as outright malicious. Even a single detection from a reputable engine is a meaningful warning, and multiple detections rarely happen by accident.
- Yes. arc-claim.pages.dev is listed on the major browser blocklist feeds under: SOCIAL_ENGINEERING. Modern browsers use these feeds to warn or block billions of users before a page even loads — a listing here is one of the strongest safety signals there is.
- arc-claim.pages.dev is 0 days old. Scam sites are very often freshly registered and short-lived, so an age under six months is a reason for extra caution.
- arc-claim.pages.dev resolves to an IP operated by Cloudflare, Inc. in US (Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad — but hosting that doesn't match a brand's claimed country, or that sits on networks known for abuse, is one of the many signals we weigh alongside the verdict above.
- This report is a record of the scan run on July 10, 2026, and the verdict reflects that point in time. Scam sites change fast — they can go live, get flagged, or vanish within days — so if you believe something about arc-claim.pages.dev has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
