## 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: 2026-05-08 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-05-08 11:30:09 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-15 00:46:53 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-27 12:20:35 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-05-14 06:08:08 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-18 17:01:50 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies ledger-hq.com as a domain that poses a specific threat of brand impersonation, where attackers aim to deceive users into revealing sensitive information by mimicking the legitimate Ledger brand. This domain was flagged by 3 security blocklists and has been taken offline, with its creation dating back to May 08, 2026, and registered through Cloudflare, Inc., resolving to IP 64.29.17.65 with an SSL certificate from Let's Encrypt / R13. 

 The evidence against ledger-hq.com is substantial, with 3 out of 95 VirusTotal security vendors flagging this domain, and its presence in 1 AlienVault OTX threat intelligence pulse, further solidifying its risk level as elevated. 

 If users have visited ledger-hq.com, they should immediately take action to protect themselves, such as monitoring their accounts for suspicious activity, updating their security software, and being cautious of any emails or messages that may be linked to this domain, as the risk of credential theft or financial loss is still present even though the domain is currently offline.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Favicon MD5:       614002c394ab7b2a7a1c7207ba29b2bb
TLS cert SHA-256:      0df3ed3aff76f432323438882af769324603c58996f5416a386e448d962102a0

## 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.
