Nameservers: ["ns4hny.name.com", "ns2ckr.name.com", "ns3jkl.name.com", "ns1cny.name.com"] Registered: 2026-02-21 Expires: 2027-01-27 Page title: Website HTTP response: 301 ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E8 Expires: 2026-04-27 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 9fd9104a4388f9f283e556b4f904339e6aed8aa952e3bd115f867cffb7c61f8b ## 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: 2026-02-21 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-02-25 02:39:27 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Earliest abuse rec: 2026-02-07 09:02:04 UTC — PREDATES current WHOIS registration; retained from a previous registration cycle of the same domain name Last verified: 2026-07-27 16:21:28 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-06 15:24:20 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/019c3746-8406-711c-89bc-5cf38196030c/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/ledger-diagnostics.live crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.ledger-diagnostics.live Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=ledger-diagnostics.live AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/ledger-diagnostics.live URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/ledger-diagnostics.live/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-25 20:42:52 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] ledger-diagnostics.live: Confirmed Ledger Brand Impersonation This domain, ledger-diagnostics.live, has been identified as a brand impersonation threat specifically targeting Ledger, a hardware cryptocurrency wallet provider. Analysis indicates the site was designed to mimic legitimate Ledger diagnostic or support pages, likely to deceive users into entering sensitive credentials or wallet recovery phrases. The infrastructure and page title metadata suggest a focused campaign to exploit trust in the Ledger brand, a common tactic in cryptocurrency-related credential theft operations. Technical indicators confirm the domain's malicious nature. The domain was registered on February 21, 2026, through Name.com, Inc., and resolves to the IP address 34.111.179.208, hosted on AS396982 (Google LLC) in the United States. The SSL certificate is issued by Let's Encrypt, a common choice for both legitimate and malicious sites. Detection metrics reveal that 21 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flagged the domain as malicious, while it appears on one additional security blocklist. The domain was also blocked by PhishDestroy, further corroborating its classification as a phishing resource. As of the latest assessment, ledger-diagnostics.live has been taken offline, reducing immediate exposure to potential victims. However, the domain's registration remains active, posing a residual risk of reactivation or repurposing. Users who may have interacted with the site are advised to revoke any connected wallet authorizations, rotate credentials, and monitor accounts for unauthorized transactions. Organizations should update blocklists to include this domain and its associated IP address to prevent future access attempts. The elevated risk level persists due to the domain's recent creation and the persistent threat of brand impersonation in the cryptocurrency sector. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260207-F28AC6 TLS cert SHA-256: 9fd9104a4388f9f283e556b4f904339e6aed8aa952e3bd115f867cffb7c61f8b ## 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 (operator 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/ledger-diagnostics.live/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=ledger-diagnostics.live 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: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
