Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] PhishDestroy identifies start.ledglive.com as a high-risk domain actively engaged in brand impersonation, specifically targeting Ledger users. This website attempts to deceive individuals into believing it is a legitimate Ledger service, potentially leading to the compromise of sensitive information, such as private keys or recovery phrases. The site mimics the official Ledger setup portal to steal credentials or trick users into downloading malicious software. Technical indicators reveal that start.ledglive.com was registered through DYNADOT LLC and created on March 24, 2026. The domain resolves to IP address 104.21.75.156 and uses an SSL certificate issued by Let's Encrypt. Notably, VirusTotal reports that 14 out of 95 security vendors flag this domain as malicious, further substantiating its harmful nature. The page title, "Ledger.com/Start® | Official Ledger® Wallet Setup Portal," is designed to mimic the legitimate Ledger website, increasing the likelihood of user deception. Users who have visited start.ledglive.com are strongly advised to immediately cease all interaction with the site. If any personal information or cryptocurrency wallet details were entered, it is crucial to take immediate steps to secure your accounts. This includes changing passwords, enabling two-factor authentication where available, and transferring any cryptocurrency to a new, secure wallet. Regularly monitor your accounts for any signs of unauthorized access or fraudulent activity. Reporting the incident to Ledger and relevant cybersecurity authorities can help prevent others from falling victim to this scam. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260426-341111 TLS cert SHA-256: 26204cd723ae2b2e47c09f11b20ac47fb19ebcf295ff790f8b2a5af2220dedff ## 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/start.ledglive.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=start.ledglive.com 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.
