## VERDICT
----------------------------------------------------------------
TAKEN DOWN (neutralised)
Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below)
Scam classification: Impersonation
Targeted brand: Ledger

## DETECTION EVIDENCE

## 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: 2025-10-08 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration)
First detected:    2026-06-22 12:25:09 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker)
First reported:    2026-06-22 10:27:06 UTC (abuse notice filed)
Last verified:     2026-06-27 00:20:35 UTC
Neutralised:       2026-06-22 18:17:29 UTC
Current status:    taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead)

## ANALYST NARRATIVE
----------------------------------------------------------------
[Generated: 2026-06-22 23:26:31 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.]

xrledger.com, a domain impersonating Ledger, is a phishing threat that has been taken offline. Despite having zero detections on VirusTotal, it is flagged by PhishDestroy, MetaMask, and SEAL blocklists. This domain exploits the early detection window before antivirus databases can update, highlighting its recent activity and potential risk.

The domain was registered with Dynadot Inc and hosted on an Amazon server in the US. It used Let's Encrypt for SSL certification, a common choice for phishing sites due to its ease of access and free service. The hosting IP, 54.177.117.207, is associated with Amazon's infrastructure, which is often leveraged by threat actors for its reliability and scalability.

PhishDestroy identified xrledger.com on June 22, 2026, months after its creation on October 8, 2025. The domain's offline status suggests a swift takedown, likely due to the coordinated efforts of security entities and the brand being impersonated. This case underscores the importance of proactive threat intelligence in identifying and mitigating phishing threats before they propagate widely.

## EVIDENCE HASHES
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhishDestroy Case ID:  PD-20260622-90D8F9
TLS cert SHA-256:      04e0ffaa62e34d03d7a32deb2977356512d81b34b7ffaa016f7c5d3f9c56f176

## 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.
