ledgerhelphq[.]com

ledgerhelphq.com is currently offline but was detected in an active brand‑impersonation campaign aimed at users of Ledger, the hardware‑wallet manufacturer. The domain was created on 21 February 2026 through OwnRegistrar, Inc. and resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3, which is part of Cloudflare’s network (ASN 13335) and is geolocated to the United States. The authoritative nameservers are kayleigh.ns.cloudflare.com and rex.ns.cloudflare.com, indicating that the attacker relied on Cloudflare’s DNS and edge services to hide the true hosting location. No TLS certificate is presented; HTTP requests return a minimal HTML page whose title reads “Just a moment…”, a default Cloudflare interstitial that is often used while a browser challenge is in progress.

Two of ninety‑three VirusTotal scanners flagged the domain as malicious, and the site appears on a single external blocklist. In addition, PhishDestroy has already taken the domain down and listed it as a crypto‑scam, confirming the malicious intent. The only publicly observable artifact is the page title; the underlying landing page, credential‑capture form, or any malicious payload has not been captured, leaving the exact attack vector uncertain. Defenders should immediately block ledgerhelphq.com at the DNS resolver or proxy level and consider denying traffic to its resolving IP 188.114.96.3.

Security teams ought to enrich existing Ledger‑specific threat‑intel feeds with the indicator set {ledgerhelphq.com, 188.114.96.3} and propagate the VirusTotal detection metadata to endpoint protection tools. Continuous monitoring of new domains registered with the same registrar or using the same Cloudflare nameservers is recommended, as the infrastructure pattern may be reused in future impersonation attempts. Given the elevated risk rating, organizations should also educate users about unsolicited Ledger‑related communications and enforce multi‑factor authentication for any crypto‑related accounts.
