How to spot fake Aave sites

Aave is a popular lending, which makes it a frequent target for phishing. The only official domain is aave.com. Everything else claiming to be Aave should be treated as suspicious.

Common fake Aave tricks

Look-alike letters

Domains that swap letters for similar characters, so aave.com becomes something that looks identical at a glance.

Brand in a sub-part

Putting “aave” in a subdomain or path of a domain the brand doesn't own, e.g. aave.claim-xyz.top.

Bait pages

“Claim your Aave airdrop”, “restore Aave wallet”, “verify Aave account” — urgency to make you connect fast.

Checklist before you connect

  • Confirm the domain is exactly aave.com — character by character.
  • Check for a padlock and no “xn--” prefix in the address bar.
  • Never sign a request you don't understand — especially unlimited approvals.
  • Use a security extension that flags fake Aave domains automatically.
