!!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!!
NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with
illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response. Primary sources:

## TLS CERTIFICATE
----------------------------------------------------------------
Issuer:     none
Status:     INVALID chain

## 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

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-03-03 03:14:58 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

PhishDestroy identifies scanledgerapi.com as a high-risk phishing domain impersonating the Ledger brand. It aimed to deceive users with a fake page titled "Just a moment..." to harvest sensitive information.

This domain resolved to IP 158.94.210.251, was registered via NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED, and appeared on 8 security blocklists. VirusTotal flagged it by 21 security vendors, and it was linked to 4 threat pulses on AlienVault OTX. The domain was recently taken offline.

Users should remain vigilant and never interact with scanledgerapi.com or similar suspicious Ledger-themed sites. Always verify URLs through official Ledger channels and report phishing attempts to help protect others.

## 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.
