According to SolanaFloor, the fake CJUP airdrop exploits confusion around Jupiter’s reward programs, directing Solana users to a wallet-draining phishing site while no official May 2026 distribution has been announced.
Scammers posing as Jupiter have sent fake CJUP tokens to Solana wallets in a phishing campaign flagged by SolanaFloor. The scheme uses unsolicited tokens labeled "$CJUP" to imitate Jupiter’s JUP token and direct users to a malicious website that functions as a wallet drainer. The warning comes as Jupiter has not announced any active airdrop for May 2026, despite past Jupuary distributions that sent 1 billion JUP tokens to nearly 1 million wallets in 2024 and 700 million JUP worth about $616 million in January 2025. The report says Jupiter’s official claim process runs only through jup.ag, including its airdrop checker at jup.ag/portfolio/airdrop-checker. It also notes that recent debate over future Jupuary events and January 2026 confusion around ASR staking reward claims may have made users more vulnerable to unusual claim requests. The legitimate JUP token trades under the ticker JUP, not CJUP, and uses the contract address JUPyiwrYJFskUPiHa7hkeR8VUtAeFoSYbKedZNsDvCN.
