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.

The page mimics Flare's official governance voting interface, presenting a proposal to vote on FLR rewards distribution dates. However, the domain flarenetworks-vote.xyz is not Flare's official property — Flare's real governance operates on vote.flare.network or similar official channels. Five antivirus engines (alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, LevelBlue, and SOCRadar) independently flagged this as phishing. The site contains no contact information, business registration, or transparency markers. The page loads a wallet-connection interface, a classic credential-harvesting pattern used to steal private keys or seed phrases from users who believe they are voting on the legitimate Flare platform. The combination of domain impersonation, AV consensus, and wallet-connection functionality points to a credential-theft operation.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The page displays a governance voting interface titled 'Flare Governance: Vote on the FLR Rewards Date' with a proposal showing 20,000 votes cast and an 87.4% majority for an August 1 launch date. It includes educational content about Flare's blockchain, FTSO oracle, and FLR token mechanics. A 'Connect wallet' button is prominently featured, inviting users to link their cryptocurrency holdings to vote.

Infrastructure

Hosted on IP 104.21.20.71 with valid SSL from Google Trust Services (86 days to expiry). The IP has zero abuse reports and a clean reputation score. External resources load from Google Fonts and Cloudflare Insights, standard third-party services. No WHOIS data is publicly available for the domain.

Domain History

The domain flarenetworks-vote.xyz is not indexed in global traffic rankings, indicating minimal legitimate web presence. No historical reputation data is available. The .xyz TLD is commonly used in phishing campaigns due to low registration barriers and lack of brand association.

Web Reputation

Five antivirus engines flagged the page as phishing: alphaMountain.ai, CRDF, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, LevelBlue, and SOCRadar. One additional engine (Ermes) marked it as not recommended. Browser blocklists remain clean, and our sandbox analysis did not trigger alerts, suggesting the malicious payload may activate only after wallet connection or user interaction.

Crypto scam / wallet-drainer indicators

The page shows patterns common to crypto-investment scams, fake airdrops, and wallet drainers.

  • Do not interact with flarenetworks-vote.xyz

    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.

  • Report 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.
