## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-25 00:24:13 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

This site, guardrail-ledger.com, impersonates the legitimate brand Ledger to pose as a cryptocurrency hardware wallet service. The threat is a phishing campaign designed to steal users’ wallet credentials and recovery phrases, leading to financial loss.

Technical evidence shows the domain is flagged by 3 out of 95 VirusTotal engines, with detections from CRDF, Gridinsoft, and SOCRadar. It is hosted on IP 172.67.136.53, registered through Cloudflare, Inc., and was created on 2026-05-21. The nameservers are dante.ns.cloudflare.com and joselyn.ns.cloudflare.com. The domain status is ACTIVE.

The site is currently active and presents a high risk to users who may mistake it for the official Ledger service. Immediate blocking is recommended.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       95a56182fed62d3e257d79a29a13eb03
TLS cert SHA-256:      dc9c35944864a56047be4351b271c9a8365386931d14dfbda302374abe73665f

## 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.
