# PhishDestroy threat dossier — authstart-ledgar.wixstudio.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-17 00:09:41 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/authstart-ledgar.wixstudio.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 99/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: phishing_login Targeted brand: ledger ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 6/92 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, Cluster25, CRDF, ESET, Gridinsoft ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 34.144.206.118 (US, Kansas City) ASN: AS396982 Google LLC Hosting org: Google Cloud Registrar: GoDaddy.com, LLC Nameservers: ["dns1.p08.nsone.net", "dns2.p08.nsone.net", "dns3.p08.nsone.net", "dns4.p08.nsone.net"] Registered: 2026-05-14 Page title: 404 Error: Page Not Found | Wix Studio HTTP response: 404 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R13 Expires: 2026-07-29 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: c2c2f0e645b35156ce5cf39339fbe5ae5ffb02446fe2aeb96da83b6fe9b20ad4 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - wixstudio.com ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-05-14 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-05-14 11:46:02 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-05-16 13:40:02 UTC Neutralised: 2026-05-14 16:35:05 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e25a8-bf27-70eb-92de-7620186c7e1f/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/authstart-ledgar.wixstudio.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.authstart-ledgar.wixstudio.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=authstart-ledgar.wixstudio.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/authstart-ledgar.wixstudio.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/authstart-ledgar.wixstudio.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-05-14 11:46:32 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies authstart-ledgar.wixstudio.com as an active phishing domain impersonating a login portal to steal credentials. This site mimics legitimate authentication pages to trick users into entering their usernames and passwords, risking account takeovers and unauthorized access to sensitive accounts. The domain leverages a compromised or deceptive subdomain under wixstudio.com, a legitimate website builder, to appear credible at first glance. Users should avoid interacting with this page due to its malicious intent. This domain was flagged with 0 detections out of 95 VirusTotal scans as of the latest analysis, indicating it remains undetected by most antivirus engines. It resolves to IP address 34.144.206.118 and uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which does not guarantee legitimacy. The subdomain structure suggests an attempt to exploit trust in the wixstudio.com domain while hosting malicious content. While the domain is under investigation, its current lack of detection means it poses a real threat to uninformed users. If you visited authstart-ledgar.wixstudio.com, immediately check your accounts for suspicious activity, especially if you entered any login credentials. Change passwords on affected accounts and enable multi-factor authentication where possible. Use a reputable security tool to scan your device for malware or unauthorized access. Report the domain to your email provider or security team if you received a link to this site. Avoid clicking on any further links from this domain or related communications to prevent additional exposure. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 9dae2d380288ac898efffb0f06444e23 TLS cert SHA-256: c2c2f0e645b35156ce5cf39339fbe5ae5ffb02446fe2aeb96da83b6fe9b20ad4 ## 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 (volunteer 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/authstart-ledgar.wixstudio.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=authstart-ledgar.wixstudio.com 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: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
