ScamBoardScamBoard guide · 9 October 2026
If your wallet balance suddenly disappeared, start by checking what actually moved. Save the network, transaction hash and receiving address. ScamBoard can help you compare community accounts and report your experience, but cannot reverse a transfer or identify a wallet owner.
Use the transaction history in your wallet and a block explorer for the correct network. MetaMask recommends checking the date, recipient, application and value before concluding a transaction was unauthorized. If it was not yours, follow your wallet provider’s official compromised-wallet guidance. Never share your recovery phrase or private key with someone offering help.
If you suspect a sweeper is automatically taking incoming funds, do not add crypto for gas. MetaMask warns this can lead to further losses. A compromised recovery phrase and a harmful token approval are different problems; disconnecting a website alone does not resolve either. Get the relevant instructions from your provider’s official support site.
Describe the order of events: where you found the link, which wallet you used, what the connection or signing screen asked you to do, and when you noticed an outgoing transaction. Connecting to a site and authorizing a transaction are different steps; say which actions you remember instead of guessing what caused the loss.
Reach support through your wallet provider’s official website. Do not give a stranger your seed phrase or private key, including someone claiming to be MetaMask support. A person who approaches you after a loss may be trying to scam you again.
You can add the reported wallet address, network, transaction reference and amount or asset lost if you know them. Never include your recovery phrase, private key, passwords or identity documents. Describe what happened even if you do not have a wallet address.
Search an address mentioned in the transaction, or try words such as “wallet drained”, “fake support” or the name of the platform where you met the account. Read the complete report before drawing a connection. The related stories below are community accounts, not technical diagnoses of your wallet.
No. ScamBoard contains community submissions, not every wallet or transaction. An address may be new, missing from a report, or not yet reported. Use the results as context, not a security certificate.

分享我的亲身经历，只希望大家不要像我一样遭受巨大损失。 我之前在网上遇到跟单交易员，刚开始跟单效果很好。后来对方多次让我进入 AOZX 交易所，并由跟单交易员操作我的账户，包括 L2/USDT 等交易。 根据我的经历和判断，我认为这些操作可能涉及做空，最终导致我的账户遭受巨大亏损。 我选择匿名分享，只是希望提醒大家提高警惕。遇到网上跟单、老师带单，特别是被要求进入指定交易所时，一定要先独立核实，不要轻易投入资金。
