# PhishDestroy threat dossier — ledgercircuit.online ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-29 23:36:34 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/ledgercircuit.online/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 60/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Targeted brand: Ledger ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 3/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: alphaMountain.ai, Fortinet, desenmascara.me Public blocklists: listed on 1 independent blocklist ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 163.61.188.5 (US, Staten Island) ASN: AS153568 NEW DHAKA HARDWARE Hosting org: MIT Registrar: Global Domain Group LLC Nameservers: ["dns1.lytehosting.com", "dns2.lytehosting.com", "dns3.lytehosting.com", "dns4.lytehosting.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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-06-29 08:49:44 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-29 06:54:15 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-30 00:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-29 08:50:03 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019f1223-5227-7326-92cd-00ce5f1ef441/ URLQuery: https://urlquery.net/report/3ca70189-803a-44e5-8132-9eea564c0afe Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/ledgercircuit.online crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.ledgercircuit.online Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=ledgercircuit.online AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/ledgercircuit.online URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/ledgercircuit.online/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-29 08:55:39 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, ledgercircuit.online, operates as a crypto drainer, a type of malicious infrastructure designed to automatically siphon cryptocurrency from connected wallets. Victims are typically lured through deceptive links in phishing emails, fake airdrop promotions, or fraudulent social media advertisements. Once a user connects their wallet to the site, malicious scripts execute unauthorized transactions, transferring funds to attacker-controlled addresses without consent. The threat is particularly severe for users of decentralized finance platforms or those holding assets in non-custodial wallets, as recovery of drained funds is often impossible. Analysis indicates that ledgercircuit.online is flagged by 3 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, a relatively low detection rate that may reflect evasion techniques or recent activation. The domain resolves to the IP address 163.61.188.5, which has been associated with other malicious activities in recent threat intelligence reports. Infrastructure analysis reveals the domain was registered through a privacy-protected registrar, obscuring ownership details and complicating attribution. The current offline status suggests takedown efforts or temporary deactivation by the threat actor, but historical data confirms its use in active crypto-draining campaigns. If you visited ledgercircuit.online or connected a wallet to the site, immediate action is required. First, disconnect the wallet from all dApps and revoke any suspicious smart contract approvals using a blockchain explorer or wallet management tool. Next, transfer remaining funds to a new, secure wallet address not previously exposed to the domain. Monitor transaction history for unauthorized activity and report the incident to relevant blockchain security platforms. Users should also scan their devices for malware, as crypto drainers are often distributed alongside infostealers or remote access trojans. Exercise caution with future wallet connections, verifying domain authenticity and using hardware wallets for high-value transactions. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260629-D40BDA ## 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/ledgercircuit.online/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=ledgercircuit.online 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.
