SCAMMERS are exploiting fake crypto wallet-checking sites that falsely claim to assess wallets for suspicious activity. Instead of performing legitimate checks, these sites aim to trick users into connecting their wallets and approving unauthorized transactions. Genuine anti-money laundering (AML) checks only require a wallet's public address, not wallet access or transaction approvals. The scammers mimic real services like AMLBot, using similar branding to mislead users.
Signs of these scams include requests for wallet connections and unexpected permissions. Victims who connect their wallets should disconnect immediately and revoke any unauthorized token access, ensuring their assets are secure. The article highlights several known scam domains and emphasizes the importance of cautious wallet-checking methods.
