Pig butchering 2026: 16 wallets, 88 fake sites mapped

A GACS investigation mapping the wallets, phishing fronts, and evidence behind the 2026 pig-butchering cluster — every entity linked.

2026-05-25 9 min read

Pig butchering isn't one scam — it's a logistics network. Romance and "wrong-number" grooming feeds the same downstream wallets and the same cloned-wallet phishing fronts. Over the last 90 days, GACS triaged 250k+ reports and ended up with a tight, repeating cluster: 16 drainer wallets across 3 chains, 88 phishing websites, 74 fake brokers, 34 fraudulent tokens. This is the public evidence file.

What the data shows

The "slaughter" phase almost never ends at the broker. Once a victim is convinced to "withdraw", they're pushed to a wallet-recovery or "tax-clearance" site that connects to MetaMask, Ledger Live, or a Tron wallet. The transaction signs away approvals to one of a small ring of drainer addresses. Same wallets. Same UI templates. Different victim each week.

  • Ethereum drainers (10 mapped): highest-volume cluster, recycled across cloned MetaMask / Uniswap / OpenSea pages.
  • Tron drainers (2 mapped): USDT-TRC20 is the laundering rail of choice; the Tron wallets receive the bulk of "tax-payment" deposits.
  • Bitcoin drainers (2 mapped): mostly used for older romance-investment victims pushed to "BTC-only mining pools".

The mapped wallets (verified, active)

Every wallet below is live on the GACS public blacklist with three independent reports and a critical severity flag. Click through to see the evidence trail, last-seen date, and how to report a transaction touching it.

The phishing front-ends feeding the cluster

The wallets above don't get filled by accident. Victims are funnelled through a templated set of cloned "support" and "claim" sites. Same colour palette, same fake-KYC modal, different domain.

Evidence timeline

A shareable, dated chain of what we observed, what we verified, and when each entity entered the public blacklist. Send this section to journalists, regulators, or your local fraud unit.

What you can do with this report

  1. Verify before you sign. Paste any wallet, domain, or token symbol into the free Safe Scanner — the 16 wallets and 88 sites above are already in the database, plus 250k more.
  2. Embed the warnings. Any of these scam pages can be embedded as a warning widget on your own blog or forum thread — automatic backlink, automatic update when severity changes.
  3. Report what we don't have yet. If your scammer's wallet, broker, or "mentor" account isn't here, add it in 60 seconds. Three independent reports auto-promote an entity to critical.
  4. If you already sent money, open the Panic Guide — the first 24 hours matter most, and the Recovery-Scam guide explains why nobody legitimate will ever DM you offering to "get your funds back".

Methodology and disclosure

GACS is advisory-only. We do not execute trades, we do not move funds, and we do not guarantee recovery. Every entity above is sourced from at least three independent public victim reports, deduplicated against on-chain transaction graphs, and reviewed against our scoring methodology. Wallet addresses are factual on-chain identifiers; entity names reflect the public-facing brand the victim was shown. Inclusion is not a legal finding — it is a documented pattern of harm. To request a correction, use the feedback form.

Frequently asked questions

Can crypto transactions be reversed?+

No. On-chain transactions are final. Recovery depends on the receiving exchange freezing funds before they are withdrawn or mixed — which is why reporting within 24 hours matters.

How do I check a crypto wallet for scam activity?+

Paste the address into the GACS Safe Scanner. It cross-references known scam wallets across BTC, ETH, BSC, and USDT-TRC20.
