================================================================

Fetched:   2026-06-28 14:24:56 UTC
Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/desktop-en-site.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, Gridinsoft, SOCRadar, Webroot
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®® Desktop — Getting Started | Official Ledger Wallet

## 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 05:31:17 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-15 00:27:29 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-28 16:20:38 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-09 06:29:09 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-26 01:30:22 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This domain was identified as a brand impersonation threat targeting users of a cryptocurrency hardware wallet platform. The site, desktop-en-site.wixstudio.com, presented itself as the official desktop application download portal, using the page title 'Ledger Live®® Desktop — Getting Started | Official Ledger Wallet' to deceive visitors into believing they were accessing legitimate software. Analysis indicates the site was designed to harvest login credentials, recovery phrases, or distribute malicious payloads under the guise of a trusted security tool, posing a significant risk to digital asset security.  Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered on June 8, 2026, through a major domain registrar, with hosting infrastructure leveraging Wix, React, Google Cloud, and HTTP/3 protocols. The SSL certificate was issued by Let's Encrypt, a common tactic to lend superficial legitimacy. Detection metrics show 5 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flagged the domain as malicious, while it appears on three distinct security blocklists, including PhishDestroy, PhishingArmy, and OISD. The discrepancy between vendor detections and blocklist presence suggests evolving detection evasion techniques.  Users who visited this domain or interacted with its content should immediately revoke any credentials entered, particularly wallet recovery phrases or private keys. Devices used to access the site should undergo a full malware scan using updated security tools. Cryptocurrency wallet users are advised to verify software authenticity exclusively through official distribution channels and enable multi-factor authentication where available. If financial transactions were initiated, affected parties should report the incident to relevant financial authorities and monitor accounts for unauthorized activity. The domain has since been taken offline, but similar threats may emerge using comparable infrastructure.

## 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.
