Security Report

Severity: High — users are being directed to a crypto wallet-draining site believing it is the official Anthropic Discord.

What happened

A Claude Code user (myself) was directed to collab.labs-land.com via a link found on social media. The site presented itself as an Anthropic community access page. It displayed:

  • A Collab.Land wallet connection UI
  • Options to connect MetaMask, WalletConnect, Phantom, Solana and other crypto wallets
  • A banner reading '🚀 Metamask Token incoming'

This is a classic crypto phishing pattern. Connecting a wallet to this site can result in asset theft.

Screenshot evidence

The URL was: collab.labs-land.com/collab/?token=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9...

The page showed wallet connection options including MetaMask, WalletConnect, Rabby Wallet, Solflare, Phantom, Solana, Dapper, TRON, ImmutableX, TokenProof, ZenGo, Eluvio and others.

How users are reaching this page

Misleading social media posts (Instagram, Facebook) about Claude tools and communities are directing users to this site. The same ecosystem of misleading influencer content that spreads false information about Claude Code and Claude Design is apparently also spreading phishing links.

Risk

Any Claude user who:

  1. Sees a post about 'joining the Anthropic/Claude community'
  2. Clicks the link
  3. Connects their crypto wallet

...could lose their crypto assets.

Recommended actions for Anthropic

  1. Publish an official warning on all Anthropic social channels that the only official Discord is discord.gg/anthropic and it does NOT require wallet connection
  2. Report the phishing site to domain registrar and Collab.Land platform
  3. Pin a message in the official Discord clarifying there is no token-gating or wallet requirement
  4. Monitor for fake Anthropic community links on social platforms

Official Discord

The real Anthropic Discord is: discord.gg/anthropic It requires NO wallet connection, NO MetaMask, NO crypto tokens.

Related context

This is part of a broader pattern of misleading content about Claude tools on social media — influencers posting false information about Claude Code, Claude Design, and now fake community links. See also issue #49631 (VS Code visibility) for context on this user's experience.

Environment

  • Platform: Web browser (Chrome)
  • OS: macOS
  • User type: Max plan subscriber, active Claude Code user
  • Discovery: Via social media link (Instagram/Facebook ecosystem)

extent analysis

TL;DR

To mitigate the phishing attack, Anthropic should publish an official warning on their social channels and report the phishing site to the domain registrar and Collab.Land platform.

Guidance

  • Publish a warning on official Anthropic social channels to inform users about the phishing site and the correct official Discord link (discord.gg/anthropic).
  • Report the phishing site (collab.labs-land.com) to the domain registrar and Collab.Land platform to take it down.
  • Pin a message in the official Discord to clarify that there is no token-gating or wallet requirement to join the community.
  • Monitor social platforms for fake Anthropic community links to prevent further phishing attempts.

Example

No code snippet is necessary for this issue, as it involves reporting and warning users about a phishing site.

Notes

The provided information suggests that this is a phishing attack targeting Anthropic and Claude users, and the recommended actions focus on mitigating the attack and warning users.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Report the phishing site and publish an official warning to prevent users from falling victim to the phishing attack. This is necessary because the phishing site is still active and posing a risk to users.
