## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-04-25 14:56:10 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy has identified desktop-help.pages.dev as an active Ledger phishing domain. This site attempts to deceive users by impersonating Ledger's legitimate services, potentially leading to credential theft or other malicious activities.

This domain, registered through Cloudflare, Inc., currently resolves to IP address 188.114.96.3. While it has not yet been widely recognized as malicious, with 0 out of 95 VirusTotal vendors flagging it, the SSL certificate is issued by Google Trust Services. The page title found is "Ledger Live Desktop | Download & Setup Guide", further suggesting a phishing attempt targeting Ledger users.

Given the active status of this domain and the specific indicators of Ledger phishing, it is strongly recommended that users avoid interacting with desktop-help.pages.dev. Security teams should consider adding this domain to blocklists and monitoring for related activity. Exercise caution when downloading software or entering credentials on any website resembling Ledger's official resources, and always verify the URL.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       5c25dc4385fe5963f245c0f0dc98b4ca
TLS cert SHA-256:      973716ec040e60d916dd6a97c442151578d8eabd00d62f34e7cb2f221d6b338f

## 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.
