## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-04-21 11:32:17 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies ledgersetup.info as a live crypto-draining domain posing as a Ledger hardware-wallet setup page. Visitors who interact with the site risk having cryptocurrency automatically transferred to attacker-controlled wallets without additional confirmation.    This domain was flagged by PhishDestroy on 2024-05-15 after VirusTotal scanners returned 2 positive detections out of 95 checks. The site is registered through a privacy-protected registrar, carries a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate, resolves to IP 188.114.96.3, and remains active as of today.    If you visited ledgersetup.info, immediately disconnect any connected wallets, revoke any recently approved token or NFT permissions, and move remaining assets to a new, clean wallet. Scan your device with up-to-date antivirus and consider a factory reset if you entered any seed phrases or private keys. Report the domain to your wallet provider and local cybercrime units.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
TLS cert SHA-256:      3546785a34986e967a02f44cb2c51d0090b0160cc0d166885f9156d1b6252842

## 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.
