Drainers

Learn how this scam works and how to protect your MyTonWallet and funds with simple safety checks.

🤔 What is it?

A drainer is a malicious script disguised as a regular wallet operation, but designed to steal your funds.

👀 How to recognize a drainer?

You can recognize it by an unexpected confirmation request that includes:

• Unknown addresses you've never seen before.

• Suspicious amounts or fees.

• Unusual data that isn’t typical for standard transactions.

🥷 How it works?

1

Scammers embed the drainer into the transaction.

2

Victim confirms the fraudulent operation.

3

All funds from the wallet are transferred to the scammers.

🕵️ How to protect yourself?

Don’t store all your funds in one wallet

Spread your assets across multiple wallets.

Use separate wallets for less-known projects

For example: games, "tap-to-earn" apps, etc.

Check details before confirming

Pay attention to amounts and fees.

Never share your seed phrase with anyone.

If an offer sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Stick to basic security rules to protect your funds.
