near-phishing-detector
Detect potential phishing URLs and suspicious contracts targeting NEAR users.
Why use this skill?
Protect your NEAR assets with the Phishing Detector skill. Scan suspicious links and smart contracts to ensure safe interactions on the NEAR Protocol.
Install via CLI (Recommended)
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/mastrophot/near-phishing-detectorWhat This Skill Does
The NEAR Phishing Detector is a critical security utility designed to protect NEAR Protocol users from malicious entities, fraudulent websites, and high-risk smart contracts. By leveraging a comprehensive database of known scams and real-time scanning capabilities, this skill allows users to audit links and contracts before interacting with them on the blockchain. The tool acts as an early warning system, providing risk scores and metadata that help users avoid signing malicious transactions or disclosing private information on phishing sites.
Installation
To integrate this security layer into your OpenClaw environment, execute the following command in your terminal:
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/mastrophot/near-phishing-detector
Ensure your OpenClaw agent has the necessary permissions for network requests to communicate with the threat intelligence backend.
Use Cases
This skill is indispensable for DeFi participants, NFT collectors, and developers. Use cases include:
- Transaction Auditing: Before interacting with a new contract, verify its reputation to prevent fund drainage.
- Link Verification: Check unknown URLs received in social media DMs or community channels against the known-scam database.
- Proactive Reporting: Contribute to the broader ecosystem security by reporting active phishing attempts, helping protect other community members from the same threat vectors.
- Due Diligence: Automate the screening process for dApp interfaces to ensure you are interacting with legitimate platforms rather than cloned front-ends.
Example Prompts
- "Check if this URL is safe to connect my NEAR wallet: https://near-staking-rewards.xyz"
- "I am planning to interact with contract address 'wrap.near'. Is there any suspicious history associated with this contract?"
- "I found a phishing attempt on Telegram. Can you report this site: https://fake-near-airdrop.com? The site is impersonating the official NEAR wallet."
Tips & Limitations
- Not a Silver Bullet: The detection provided is for assistance only and does not constitute a legal or definitive security audit. Always perform your own research.
- Verify Sources: If a high-risk alert is triggered, do not proceed with the transaction. Cross-reference the results with official NEAR governance channels or documentation.
- Update Often: Keep your skill repository updated to ensure your local database includes the latest known threat signatures.
