ArbPoly.io Scam Warning: $2,000 USDC Lost After Connecting Phantom Wallet
I want to warn others about my experience with ArbPoly.io.
I connected my Phantom wallet to ArbPoly.io to test their supposed trading bot. Almost immediately after connecting, $2,000 USDC was removed from my wallet. The funds never appeared in my ArbPoly account and there was no explanation on the platform itself.
I contacted ArbPoly support through their official channels. Their response was that the funds were “temporarily held in the RPC node due to a synchronization delay.” They then instructed me to top up my wallet with another 2,000 USDC so the system could “detect sufficient balance” and automatically return the funds.
This explanation does not make technical sense. RPC nodes do not hold user funds, and there is no mechanism in blockchain systems where sending additional USDC unlocks previously transferred tokens. The request to deposit more money strongly suggests an attempt to extract further funds.
From my experience, ArbPoly.io appears to be running a wallet-draining script that removes tokens once a wallet is connected. The support response reinforced this concern rather than resolving the issue.
I lost $2,000 USDC and have no way to recover it. Anyone considering using ArbPoly.io should be extremely cautious and avoid connecting their wallet to this platform.
