Is authenvpn.com a Ledger impersonation scam?

Analysis indicates that authenvpn.com is actively used for a Ledger brand impersonation campaign. The site presents the page title “Ledger Suite Diagnostics – Hardware Wallet Testing,” directly referencing Ledger hardware wallets. DNS resolution points to IP 188.114.96.3, a Cloudflare‑owned address located in Canada. The domain’s MX record references smtp.google.com, and its authoritative nameservers are itzel.ns.cloudflare.com and mitch.ns.cloudflare.com, suggesting reliance on Cloudflare infrastructure. TLS is provided by Google Trust Services (certificate “WE1”), which may lend an appearance of legitimacy. The domain has been cited in twelve AlienVault OTX pulses and appears on three independent security blocklists. VirusTotal scans show five of ninety‑one scanners flagging the host, and it is currently blocked by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL. Registration was performed through Ultahost, Inc. The presence of a legitimate‑looking certificate and use of Cloudflare services do not mitigate the risk; the combination of brand‑specific page title, blocklist listings, and multiple threat‑intel references confirms a high‑risk impersonation operation. Uncertainty remains regarding the exact payload delivered to victims and whether the site hosts credential‑stealing forms. Defenders should block authenvpn.com at DNS and network layers, monitor for related C2 IP activity, and update detection signatures to include the observed page title and TLS fingerprint. Ongoing observation of any changes to the domain’s hosting or certificate details is advised.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       bab631a2479c23c7727cf637c7e005e4
TLS cert SHA-256:      f760e4c45ba91c2bcd071c41f6a9216a0a0c9a834e72d41011e4715fda22e161

## 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.
