# PhishDestroy threat dossier — ledge-startapp.wixstudio.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-05-31 13:50:38 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/ledge-startapp.wixstudio.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 12/94 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Cluster25, CRDF, CyRadar, ESET, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Lionic, Sophos, VIPRE Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 34.144.206.118 (US, Kansas City) ASN: AS396982 Google LLC Hosting org: Google Cloud Registrar: GoDaddy.com, LLC Nameservers: ["dns1.p08.nsone.net", "dns2.p08.nsone.net", "dns3.p08.nsone.net", "dns4.p08.nsone.net"] Registered: 2026-04-16 Page title: 404 Error: Page Not Found | Wix Studio ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / R12 Expires: 2026-06-04 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 79b690ec6aae60ba0de52d269638de0a570e5a2c2e467d8b649454d39b9edaab Subject Alternative Names (related infrastructure — often same operator): - wixstudio.com ## 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: 2026-04-16 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-04-16 18:24:44 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-05-31 13:20:39 UTC Neutralised: 2026-04-16 21:01:01 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019d96e3-bd7d-75de-9d4d-45f391d43e10/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/ledge-startapp.wixstudio.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.ledge-startapp.wixstudio.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=ledge-startapp.wixstudio.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/ledge-startapp.wixstudio.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/ledge-startapp.wixstudio.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-04-16 18:25:22 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies ledge-startapp.wixstudio.com as an active generic phishing domain currently under investigation by security teams. This domain is not yet flagged by automated threat intelligence systems (0 detections out of 95 VirusTotal vendors), indicating a potential evasion of standard detection mechanisms. The domain is hosted on Let’s Encrypt-validated infrastructure via IP address 34.144.206.118, which may suggest a reliance on legitimate SSL certificates to appear more credible to end users. This domain was flagged by 0 of 95 VirusTotal vendors as of the latest scan, indicating a lack of immediate detection by automated analysis platforms. The infrastructure resolves to IP 34.144.206.118, which is part of a broader cloud hosting environment. Let’s Encrypt issued the SSL certificate for this domain, a common practice among threat actors leveraging free certificate authorities to bypass security filters. No additional indicators, such as creation date or historical blocklist entries, are currently available from the provided intelligence. The absence of detections and reliance on mainstream hosting and SSL providers highlight a stealthy approach likely designed to evade conventional security controls. As this domain remains active and under investigation, organizations and users are advised to treat it as a potential threat. Implement network-level blocking for the domain and IP address (34.144.206.118) to prevent access. Increase user awareness through security awareness training to recognize phishing attempts delivered via counterfeit or generic domains. Monitor for any additional IOCs, such as URL patterns or payload delivery mechanisms, and report any observed malicious activity involving this domain to threat intelligence platforms or internal SOC teams. Given the low initial detection rate, manual verification and sandbox analysis of related content are strongly recommended before trusting this domain or its associated infrastructure. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - VirusTotal detections: now 12/94 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: d9a0f9f655ae8708147e53e542de518b TLS cert SHA-256: 79b690ec6aae60ba0de52d269638de0a570e5a2c2e467d8b649454d39b9edaab ## 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/ledge-startapp.wixstudio.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=ledge-startapp.wixstudio.com 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.
