## 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.

Last verified:     2026-06-21 12:20:39 UTC

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-13 12:19:42 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies gethelp-ledger.com as an under investigation threat due to brand impersonation of Ledger. This specific threat type poses a significant risk as it can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive information.

The domain gethelp-ledger.com was flagged due to several key indicators, including 0/95 detections on VirusTotal, registration through PDR Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com, and resolution to IP 188.114.97.3. The domain also has an SSL certificate issued by Google Trust Services / WE1. Notably, the domain is still active, highlighting the need for caution.

To mitigate the risks associated with brand impersonation, users are advised to verify the authenticity of websites before providing sensitive information. In the case of gethelp-ledger.com, it is crucial to ensure that any interactions are with the legitimate Ledger website. Users can take steps to protect themselves by being cautious of emails or websites that ask for sensitive information, and by reporting any suspicious activity to the relevant authorities. By taking these precautions, users can significantly reduce the risk of falling victim to brand impersonation threats like gethelp-ledger.com.

[Updates since narrative was generated:]
  - VirusTotal detections: now 18/91 (narrative was written when count was lower)

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260609-C0DFE5
Favicon MD5:       a2f0fcf71334677b40c67dda763a2b5e
TLS cert SHA-256:      7164ce3ef34782c8502cc132642b054977223b6247f689257b335cedd0eb129f

## 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.
