Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, desktop-app-ledger.pages.dev, poses a high-risk threat by impersonating the official Ledger Live Desktop application, a cryptocurrency wallet management platform. The site mimics the legitimate Ledger interface to deceive users into entering sensitive credentials or downloading malicious software, potentially leading to unauthorized access to crypto wallets, private keys, or seed phrases. Given the target audience—cryptocurrency users—the financial and operational impact of successful exploitation could be severe, including irreversible asset theft or account compromise. The domain’s infrastructure and page design closely replicate the authentic Ledger Live experience, increasing the likelihood of user deception. Analysis indicates the domain was registered on October 23, 2025, through Cloudflare, Inc., and currently resolves to the IP address 172.66.44.53, hosted on Cloudflare’s network (AS13335). Security vendors have flagged the domain as malicious, with 9 out of 95 VirusTotal engines detecting it as harmful. Additionally, the domain appears on one security blocklist, further corroborating its malicious nature. The SSL certificate, issued by Google Trust Services (WE1), does not mitigate the risk, as threat actors frequently leverage legitimate certificates to lend false credibility to fraudulent sites. The page title, 'Ledger Live Desktop | Your All-in-One Crypto Wallet App,' directly mirrors the branding of the legitimate Ledger product, reinforcing the impersonation tactic. Users who have visited desktop-app-ledger.pages.dev or interacted with its content should immediately cease all engagement and take corrective actions. First, disconnect any devices that accessed the domain from networks and external storage to prevent lateral movement of potential malware. Second, revoke any permissions granted to browser extensions or applications downloaded from the site. Third, rotate all credentials associated with cryptocurrency wallets, exchanges, or related services, prioritizing accounts linked to Ledger or similar platforms. Monitor financial transactions for unauthorized activity and report the incident to relevant security teams or fraud response units. If private keys or seed phrases were entered, consider migrating assets to a new wallet, as compromised keys cannot be secured retroactively. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain remains active, underscoring the need for continued vigilance and proactive blocking of the domain and its associated IP address (172.66.44.53) within organizational security controls. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 5c25dc4385fe5963f245c0f0dc98b4ca TLS cert SHA-256: 1d2ef5e37c0230160f26dfd97db2d7b9c08260d6d1456b4c40e721e7cc284e84 ## 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/desktop-app-ledger.pages.dev/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=desktop-app-ledger.pages.dev 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.
