ME News reports that on October 31 (UTC+8), the founder of Flap posted on X that the official FLAP website domain is currently experiencing abnormal redirection. The risk affects only users who visited the malicious site and connected their wallet or signed authorization within the few dozen minutes prior to the announcement; users who previously accessed the legitimate FLAP website are unaffected and do not need to change their wallet addresses. FLAP does not store users’ private keys, seed phrases, or wallet data—this information is not retained on FLAP’s servers. Until the issue is resolved, please avoid visiting the FLAP website; the team will notify users via official channels once the site is restored. Users who connected their wallets on the site earlier may privately message the Flap founder for assistance. (Source: ODAILY)
