# PhishDestroy threat dossier — authstart-ledzarcdn.wixstudio.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-30 03:27:58 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/authstart-ledzarcdn.wixstudio.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 62/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Targeted brand: Ledger ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 5/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Cluster25, CRDF, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Registrar: GoDaddy.com, LLC Nameservers: ["dns1.p08.nsone.net", "dns2.p08.nsone.net", "dns3.p08.nsone.net", "dns4.p08.nsone.net"] Registered: 2026-06-08 Page title: Ledger® Live — Getting Started | official Ledger Wallet App HTTP response: 404 ## 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: 2026-06-08 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-09 05:31:15 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-30 04:20:35 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-09 06:27:53 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 01:33:58 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, authstart-ledzarcdn.wixstudio.com, poses a brand impersonation threat targeting Ledger, a cryptocurrency hardware wallet provider. The site mimics the official Ledger Live application page, presenting itself as the "Getting Started" portal for the Ledger Wallet App. Such impersonation is typically used to distribute malicious software, harvest credentials, or facilitate cryptocurrency theft by deceiving users into believing they are interacting with legitimate Ledger infrastructure. The page title, "Ledger® Live — Getting Started | official Ledger Wallet App," reinforces the deception by using official branding and terminology to lower user defenses. Analysis indicates the domain was registered through GoDaddy.com, LLC on June 08, 2026, and is currently offline. Infrastructure reveals the use of Wix hosting, React, Google Cloud, and HTTP/3, alongside a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate. VirusTotal reports 5 out of 95 security vendors flagging the domain as malicious, while it appears on three security blocklists: PhishDestroy, PhishingArmy, and OISD. The combination of brand impersonation, low detection rates, and blocklist inclusion suggests a targeted campaign with elevated risk. Users who visited authstart-ledzarcdn.wixstudio.com should immediately revoke any credentials or recovery phrases entered on the site. Devices used to access the domain should undergo a full malware scan, with particular attention to browser extensions or downloaded files. If cryptocurrency transactions were initiated, users should check wallet addresses for unauthorized transfers and consider migrating assets to a new wallet. Monitoring for phishing attempts via email or messaging platforms is advised, as attackers may reuse collected information for follow-up campaigns. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 9dae2d380288ac898efffb0f06444e23 ## 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-ledzarcdn.wixstudio.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=authstart-ledzarcdn.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.
