## 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.

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-13 11:29:43 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies crypto-ledger-download.com as a domain engaged in brand impersonation, specifically targeting Ledger, a well-known brand in the cryptocurrency space. This domain was flagged for its malicious intent, with no indication of a drainer kit being used.

Technical indicators reveal that crypto-ledger-download.com has a VirusTotal score of 8/95, indicating a significant majority of security vendors have flagged this domain. The domain was registered through Hello Internet Corp and resolves to IP 104.21.13.210. Given its current status, it appears the domain has been taken offline, suggesting some level of intervention by security measures.

Currently, crypto-ledger-download.com is offline, which reduces the immediate risk it poses. However, users should remain cautious as similar domains could be created to continue the brand impersonation threat. The fact that 8 out of 95 security vendors flagged this domain underscores the importance of vigilance. Users are advised to verify the authenticity of websites before interacting with them, especially when dealing with financial or sensitive information, to mitigate the risk of brand impersonation threats like crypto-ledger-download.com.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       5e7e616dc943d23075771a3df24210dc
TLS cert SHA-256:      e168136ccb7e44946470506b2aa70e286f675819b82125791edc83b589169f95

## 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.
