Inferno Drainer was a prolific 'wallet drainer' service operating from late 2022 through November 2023 — the canonical example of the 2023-era surge in Web3 phishing. Operators of the service paid Inferno's developers a percentage of stolen funds for access to a turnkey kit: a JavaScript-based drainer payload, a phishing-site template, integration with multiple wallet protocols, and laundering through mixers and cross-chain bridges. Victims arrived at lookalike NFT-mint or token-airdrop sites (often promoted via hijacked Twitter accounts, Discord scams, and Google Ads), connected their wallet, and were prompted to sign 'mint' or 'claim' transactions that were actually unlimited ERC-20 / ERC-721 `setApprovalForAll` or `Permit` calls. The drainer then drained the approved tokens to operator-controlled addresses. Chainalysis and ScamSniffer estimated Inferno stole at least $80 million from 100,000+ victims before its operators announced shutdown in November 2023. Successor and copycat drainers — Pink Drainer, Angel Drainer, MS Drainer, AngelX — picked up the same kit-and-affiliate model and remained active through 2024–2025.
