Bonk.fun Domain Hijacked as Fake TOS Prompt Targets Solana Wallets

Users are being told to avoid the site pending the team's investigation.

Overview

  • Bonk.fun says a team account was compromised, letting attackers inject a wallet-draining prompt on the bonk.fun domain.
  • Only users who signed the fraudulent terms-of-service message after the breach were exposed; prior connections and trades via third-party terminals were not affected.
  • Browser security warnings flagged the site for suspected phishing, and the domain remained unsafe at last check.
  • The team has not disclosed total losses; one user reported a $273,000 drain, while analytics firm Bubblemaps estimated about 35 affected wallets and roughly $23,000 stolen based on early on-chain data.
  • Officials credit quick detection and community alerts with limiting impact, underscoring a broader rise in front-end phishing attacks across crypto.
