Watch Out for Copycats — fake sites are posing as MeteonBot

Fake MeteonBot sites exist, and they are dangerous. They clone our design, borrow our branding, and rig their "connect wallet" screen to steal your keys. We have already shut down one clone sitting behind Cloudflare — polyball.xyz — which proxied our origin and tried to pose as us. This is not a what-if. Only one MeteonBot is legitimate, and it lives on a single domain. The rest of this post shows how to spot the genuine site and what to do if you have already interacted with a fake.

The only legitimate MeteonBot domain

https://meteonbot.com — this is the only domain we operate. If the address bar says anything other than meteonbot.com, you are not on MeteonBot.

Bookmark it. Type it. Do not trust links from DMs, Telegram groups, Discord, or random tweets promising "the new MeteonBot." There isn't one — there is just meteonbot.com.

Clones already exist — assume more are coming

Impersonation isn't a future risk for us; it has already happened. A copycat hosted behind Cloudflare pointed straight at our origin servers and tried to serve our own dashboard under a different name. We shut it down with a strict host check at the edge plus a hostname guard in the page itself — but the lesson stands: anyone can stand up a look-alike in an afternoon.

Confirmed clone (taken down): a Cloudflare-fronted copy of meteonbot.com
It mirrored our entire front end and proxied our origin. Not safe and not legitimate. Expect new TLD swaps, hyphenated knock-offs, and "poly"-prefixed variants to surface — treat every one of them as hostile until proven otherwise.

We won't publish a fake-URL whack-a-mole list here, because new ones appear faster than any list stays current. The rule is simpler and never goes stale: if it isn't meteonbot.com, it isn't us.

What the scammers actually do

The playbook is depressingly consistent across crypto phishing, and MeteonBot is a prime target because trading means wallets are already in the loop:

  • Lookalike wallet flow. The "connect wallet" screen on a clone looks identical to ours, but the form is wired to a stranger. The moment you paste a key or sign, your funds are gone.
  • Fake "MeteonBot migration" announcements. Urgent posts telling you to "move your wallet to the new domain." There is no migration. MeteonBot does not move to new domains and will never ask you to.
  • Sponsored search ads. Copycats buy ads at the top of search results for "meteonbot" and "polymarket weather bot." Skip the ads — type the address or use your bookmark.
  • Fake support DMs. If someone messages you claiming to be MeteonBot support and asks for your private key, seed phrase, or a "verification signature," they are not us. MeteonBot will never DM you asking for keys or seed phrases — ever, by any channel.

If you connected a wallet to a copycat

Move your funds to a fresh wallet immediately. Any key or seed phrase you entered on a fake site should be considered fully exposed. Generate a brand-new wallet, transfer everything out of the compromised one, and stop using the old one for trading entirely.

How to verify you're on the real MeteonBot

Five quick checks, in order. If even one fails, close the tab.

  1. 1 The URL bar reads exactly meteonbot.com — no trailing letters, no hyphens, no swapped TLD, no extra subdomains other than www.
  2. 2 The padlock is real. Click it. The certificate should be issued to meteonbot.com. Expired, mismatched, or self-signed means you are not where you think you are.
  3. 3 Type the URL yourself. Don't click a link in Telegram, Discord, X, an email, a Google ad, or a forum post. Typed URL only — or a bookmark you made on your first real visit.
  4. 4 Use a fresh trading wallet. Even on the real site, trade from a dedicated wallet holding only what you intend to trade — never your main wallet, never one with NFTs or long-term holdings.
  5. 5 If anything looks off, leave. Different fonts, missing pages, broken links, a "limited-time migration offer," or any prompt asking for a seed phrase — close the tab. Don't try to decide if it's "probably fine." It isn't.

Help us shut these down — report copycats

If you spot a domain claiming to be MeteonBot that isn't meteonbot.com, send it to us. We file takedown requests with registrars, hosting providers, Cloudflare, browser blocklists, and ad networks — but we can only act on sites we know about. Include the suspicious URL, a screenshot if you have one, and how you found it (DM, ad, search result). Most copycats can be killed within 24–72 hours of a good report; our users are the fastest detection network we have.

The bottom line

There is one MeteonBot, at one domain: meteonbot.com. Every other site claiming to be us is unsafe. Bookmark the real one, type it directly when in doubt, never enter wallet keys or seed phrases on a look-alike domain, and remember we will never DM you for them. Tell us when you spot a fake.

Stay sharp out there. Trading the storm is hard enough without losing funds to a typo.
