Almost got scammed – now I can’t send SOL or swap tokens anymore

Hey everyone,

Earlier today I almost got scammed and now my Solana wallet seems to be broken.

I connected my wallet to a website to vote for a token. The page prepared a transaction and showed all tokens in my wallet, which looked very suspicious. Because of that I did NOT sign the transaction and cancelled it.

Since that moment my wallet behaves very strangely.

Current situation:

  • I can receive SOL
  • I cannot send SOL to external wallets
  • I cannot swap tokens
  • wallet swaps fail
  • swaps via Jupiter fail
  • most transactions fail with “Transaction simulation failed – invalid program argument”

However:

  • my funds are still in the wallet
  • I don’t see any tokens being stolen
  • I can send tokens to myself
  • I can move tokens between my main and legacy address

I tried different wallets:

  • Backpack
  • Phantom
  • Solflare (mobile and browser)

Same issue everywhere.

Has anyone ever experienced something like this after cancelling a transaction?
Is it possible that something in my account state got messed up?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
