On November 2, 2020, the Polymetal international investment phishing site was launched. Its contents have been copied almost entirely from the original Polymetal International website. Most of the pages were copied and modified for the needs of the attackers. However, the link in the clone logo leads to the original site.

The home page of the fake site contains information about investment packages (5 types), with a profit of 5 to 50 percent in 8 days. The same information is available in the investor's personal account after registration. Investments can only be made in bitcoins.

 

In less than a month, the scammers sold 34 packages worth about 0.19 BTC. The criminals' consolidating crypto wallet received 250 transactions at 53.44 BTC. Most of the funds are withdrawn on the Hong Kong crypto exchange Binance.

It is noteworthy that on the same hosting in Phoenix (California, USA) there is another project of Lugwise Asset Management (Lugwiseinvest). The project was launched on October 5 and is positioned as a London-based asset management firm. Although the legal address on the site is listed in San Francisco (California, USA).

Judging by the activity and the amount of funds on the associated purses of the scammers, this is not a complete list of their illegal services and projects.
