Beware of copycats/scams — fake sites are impersonating WeatherBot
Multiple fraudulent websites are now impersonating WeatherBot. They look similar, they use our branding, and several are actively phishing private keys from users who thought they were on our site. Do not connect a wallet to any of them. The information below explains how to identify the real WeatherBot and what to do if you've already interacted with a copycat.
The only legitimate WeatherBot domain
https://weatherbot.fi — this is the only domain we operate. If the URL in your browser bar is anything other than weatherbot.fi, you are not on WeatherBot.
Bookmark it. Type it. Don't click links from DMs, Telegram groups, or random tweets that promise to take you to "the new WeatherBot." There isn't one.
Confirmed copycat / scam domains
Over the last few weeks, the team has confirmed at least six domains actively impersonating WeatherBot. Some clone our entire dashboard pixel-for-pixel. All of them are unsafe.
weatherbot.ai
polyweatherbot.fi
polymarketweatherbot.fi
weatherbot-app.com
weatherbots.fi · weather-bot.fi · weatherbot.io
This list is not exhaustive. New copycats appear weekly. The rule is simple: if it isn't weatherbot.fi, it isn't us.
What the scammers actually do
This isn't speculation — we've reverse-engineered three of the active copycats. Here's the play:
- Lookalike wallet flow. The "Connect Wallet" screen on a copycat looks identical to ours, but the form is wired to a third party we have no relationship with. Not safe and not legitimate.
- Fake "WeatherBot v3" announcements. Telegram groups and X (Twitter) accounts pushing urgent "migrate your wallet to the new domain" messages. There is no migration. If you see one, assume it's not us.
- Sponsored search ads. Several copycats have paid for Google ads at the top of search results for "weatherbot" and "polymarket weather bot." Skip the ads — the first organic result is the real one.
- Fake support DMs. If someone DMs you saying they're from WeatherBot support and asks for your private key, seed phrase, or a "verification signature," they are not us. We will never ask for any of those, by any channel, ever.
If you connected a wallet to a copycat
Move your funds to a fresh wallet as a precaution. The copycat sites are not safe and not legitimate, and any key you entered there should be considered exposed. Generate a new wallet, transfer everything out of the old one, and stop using the old one for trading.
How to verify you're on the real WeatherBot
Five quick checks, in order. If even one of these fails, close the tab.
-
1
URL bar reads exactly
weatherbot.fi— no trailing letters, no hyphens, no extra subdomains other thanwww. -
2
The padlock is real. Click it. The certificate should be issued to
weatherbot.fiby Let's Encrypt. Anything else — expired cert, mismatched name, self-signed — means you are not where you think you are. - 3 Type the URL yourself. Do not click a link in Telegram, Discord, X, an email, a Google ad, or a forum post. Typed URL only. Or use a bookmark you made the first time you visited.
- 4 Use a fresh trading wallet. Even on the real site, your trading wallet should be a separate one with only the funds you intend to trade — never your main wallet, never one with NFTs or long-term holdings.
- 5 If anything looks off, leave. Different fonts, missing pages, broken links, "limited-time migration offer," any pop-up asking for a seed phrase — close the tab. Don't try to figure out if it's still safe. It isn't.
Help us shut these down — please report copycats
If you spot a domain claiming to be WeatherBot that isn't weatherbot.fi, send it to us. We submit takedown requests to registrars, hosting providers, Cloudflare, browser blocklists, and ad networks — but we can only do that for sites we know about.
The bottom line
There is one WeatherBot, at one domain: weatherbot.fi. Every other site claiming to be us is unsafe. Bookmark the real one, type it directly when in doubt, and please tell us when you spot a fake. Our users are the most effective takedown network we have.
Stay safe out there. The trading desk is hard enough without losing funds to a typo.
