No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-05-27 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-27 21:30:14 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-07-31 12:45:55 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-29 12:23:33 UTC Current status: ACTIVE — cloaked behind HTTP 666 to evade scanners ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-12 17:52:06 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Ledger Impersonation on app.ledger-lives-desktop.io The domain app.ledger-lives-desktop.io was registered on May 27 2026 and is presently active. It is being leveraged to impersonate the Ledger brand, reproducing the Ledger Live onboarding experience as evidenced by the page title “Ledger Live Setup: Wallet Configuration and Onboarding”. The threat is classified as high‑risk brand impersonation targeting Ledger users.  Infrastructure analysis shows the domain resolves to IPv4 address 193.24.123.182, which is hosted in Russia and tied to the legal entity Prospero OOO. The site is fronted by Cloudflare, employing Cloudflare Browser Insights and HTTP/3, and presents a valid TLS certificate from Let’s Encrypt (YR2). An HTTP 302 redirect is observed, steering visitors to a credential‑capture page that mirrors the official Ledger Live UI.  Reputation data is strongly negative: Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0 / 100, the domain appears on one public security blocklist, and VirusTotal records three detections out of ninety‑five scanners. PhishDestroy has already blocked the domain, confirming its malicious intent. The page’s content is crafted to lure victims into entering wallet credentials, consistent with the observed brand‑impersonation pattern.  Defenders should add app.ledger-lives-desktop.io to network‑level blocklists, configure email security gateways to quarantine any messages referencing the domain, and monitor DNS queries for the domain and its resolved IP address. Threat‑intel sharing with industry feeds can accelerate detection of related campaigns. End‑user education must stress that legitimate Ledger communications never originate from third‑party domains, and that a Let’s Encrypt certificate does not validate the authenticity of the service. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: ee730225d0b94307b90f13c6ac9df07e507c6db87d6d715d92ab4e99f16c6d1b ## SCORING METHODOLOGY ---------------------------------------------------------------- Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates: - VirusTotal positive ratio - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus, CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB) - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor) - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.) - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording) - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures) - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...) - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal) - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record) - Human researcher sign-off (operator takedown team) A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite score and the individual indicators above, not just VT. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/app.ledger-lives-desktop.io/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=app.ledger-lives-desktop.io Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
