Detection of Ethereum Phishing Fraud Nodes Based on Feature Enhancement Strategy and GBM

With the rapid development of blockchain technology and the popularity of cryptocurrency, phishing scams pose an increasingly severe threat to the security of cryptocurrency transactions. Existing fraud detection methods have not accurately identified phishing behaviors, especially failing to capture key neighbor information and its impact effectively. To address this problem, we proposed a phishing detection framework based on FAAN-GBM (Feature and Attention Augmented Network with Gradient Boosting Machine), which aims to improve phishing fraud detection effectiveness on the Ethereum platform by further refining the extraction of phishing account features. This framework integrates basic features, transaction features, and interaction features of nodes, optimizes feature aggregation through importance analysis and attention mechanism of neighbor node, and uses autoencoders to deepen the nonlinear expression of node features. Through extensive testing on real Ethereum datasets, FAAN-GBM has demonstrated superior performance over existing methods, effectively improving the identification accuracy of phishing fraud nodes.
