Wallet Drainer Investigation Services
Wallet drained by a phishing site or malicious approval? We trace your stolen tokens and NFTs through attacker networks to identify exchange destinations for potential recovery.
How Wallet Drainers Work
Wallet drainers are malicious tools that steal cryptocurrency by exploiting token approval mechanisms or tricking users into signing harmful transactions. Victims typically encounter them through phishing links shared on social media, fake airdrop claims, or compromised websites.
Modern drainers are sophisticated—they can steal multiple token types, entire NFT collections, and even assets you didn't know you had. The drain often happens in seconds, with attackers quickly moving funds through multiple wallets to obscure trails.
Our investigation traces from the initial drain transaction through the attacker's consolidation and laundering process. Drainer operators often process many victims' funds together, eventually routing to exchanges or mixers. We follow every step to identify where your specific funds went.
Types of Wallet Drainer Attacks
We investigate all wallet compromise methods
Approval Exploits
Malicious sites trick users into signing unlimited token approvals, then drain wallets at will.
Phishing Sites
Fake websites mimicking legitimate DeFi protocols or NFT mints that steal credentials or trigger drains.
Malicious Airdrops
Free tokens that require interaction, leading to wallet compromise when users try to sell.
Signature Phishing
Seemingly harmless signature requests that actually authorize asset transfers (Permit, Permit2).
NFT Drainers
Malicious minting sites that gain approval to transfer all NFTs from victim wallets.
Clipboard Hijackers
Malware that replaces copied wallet addresses with attacker addresses during transactions.

Attack Analysis
- • Identify the exact transaction that enabled the drain
- • Analyze the malicious contract or signature
- • Document the attack vector and timeline
- • Identify other victims of the same drainer
Fund Tracing
- • Track all stolen assets (tokens, NFTs, native currency)
- • Follow funds through attacker wallet network
- • Identify consolidation and laundering patterns
- • Determine exchange destinations

Wallet Drainer Investigation FAQ
What is a wallet drainer?
A wallet drainer is a malicious smart contract or script that steals cryptocurrency from wallets. Victims typically encounter them through phishing sites, fake airdrops, or compromised links. Once you interact with a drainer, it can steal tokens, NFTs, or both.
How did my wallet get drained?
Common causes: signing a malicious approval transaction, interacting with a phishing site, clicking a compromised link, or signing a permit/signature that authorized transfers. Our investigation can identify exactly which transaction enabled the drain.
Can you trace where my drained funds went?
Yes. We trace from the drain transaction through the attacker's wallet network. Drainer operations typically consolidate funds from multiple victims before routing to exchanges or mixers. We follow the complete path.
Multiple tokens and NFTs were stolen. Can you trace all of them?
Yes. Wallet drainers often steal everything accessible—multiple tokens and entire NFT collections. We trace each stolen asset separately, tracking where each type of asset was sent.
How do I prevent future drains?
Revoke unnecessary token approvals, use hardware wallets, verify URLs carefully, never sign transactions you don't understand, and be suspicious of airdrops and "free" offers. We can advise on security improvements after investigating your case.
The drain happened instantly. Is tracing still possible?
Absolutely. Speed of the drain doesn't affect tracing—all transactions are permanently recorded on the blockchain. Whether funds were drained in seconds or over hours, we can trace the complete movement.
Can you identify the drainer operator?
We can trace funds to their destinations. If funds reach exchanges with KYC requirements, law enforcement can potentially request identity information. Many drainer operators are eventually identified through fund tracing.
