# PhishDestroy threat dossier — fortivexledger.top ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-22 05:18:59 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/fortivexledger.top/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Impersonation Targeted brand: Ledger ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 1/95 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: CRDF URLQuery: 2 detections AlienVault OTX: 4 pulses (threat-intel feed mentions) Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 163.61.188.7 Registrar: Global Domain Group LLC Nameservers: ["dns1.lytehosting.com.", "dns2.lytehosting.com.", "dns3.lytehosting.com.", "dns4.lytehosting.com."] Registered: 2026-06-07 Page title: Fortivex Ledger ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / YR1 Expires: 2026-09-04 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: a06803a746913589e2d2b09c2c5df2b75e8d1ac6264b96243bdbd49de13df9b6 Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - mail.fortivexledger.top - www.fortivexledger.top ## 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: 2026-06-07 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-08 14:45:35 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-06-07 09:34:45 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-06-22 04:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-16 00:38:00 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) Note: one or more events above predate the WHOIS creation date. This typically means the same domain name was previously registered, detected, dropped, and then re-registered by a new party. PhishDestroy preserves the full historical record for operator-attribution research even when the underlying infrastructure changes hands. ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019ea16b-4e55-754e-8889-a02a536d8f79/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/52dbfbe9-a5af-420b-91f4-5ccaf91f0ec5 Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/fortivexledger.top crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.fortivexledger.top Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=fortivexledger.top AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/fortivexledger.top URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/fortivexledger.top/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-18 16:39:08 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies fortivexledger.top as a brand impersonation site, specifically designed to deceive users into revealing sensitive information by masquerading as Ledger. This domain was flagged due to its suspicious characteristics, having been created on June 07, 2026, and registered through Global Domain Group LLC, with a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, and currently resolves to IP 163.61.188.7, which appears on 1 security blocklist and was found in 4 threat intelligence pulses by AlienVault OTX, with 1 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flagging it. The domain's threat indicators include its recent creation, the low number of security vendors flagging it, and its appearance on a security blocklist, all of which contribute to its elevated risk level, and with Ledger being the target, users should exercise extreme caution. Users who may have visited fortivexledger.top should immediately check their accounts for any suspicious activity, change their passwords, and monitor their credit reports, as brand impersonation can lead to credential theft and financial loss, and it is crucial to report any incidents to the relevant authorities to prevent further damage, now that the site has been taken offline, it is essential to take proactive measures to protect sensitive information. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260607-A71394 Favicon MD5: c9969290d93dced25e7a0f6fadf98911 TLS cert SHA-256: a06803a746913589e2d2b09c2c5df2b75e8d1ac6264b96243bdbd49de13df9b6 ## 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/fortivexledger.top/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=fortivexledger.top 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.
