These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.

This page uses language and API references consistent with modern crypto wallet-drainer kits. If you connected your wallet or signed a transaction on this site, assume your wallet is compromised — revoke approvals, move funds to a fresh wallet with a new seed phrase, and treat the original as burned.

Confidence
The site is a sophisticated imitation of the official Ledger website, designed to trick users into thinking they are using the legitimate 'Ledger Live' application. Our security analysis shows that multiple antivirus engines, including Fortinet and alphaMountain.ai, have already flagged this specific URL as phishing or malicious. The domain name itself is a major red flag, as it adds extra words to the official brand name to create a false sense of legitimacy. Furthermore, the site is not indexed in global traffic rankings, which is highly unusual for a major financial security provider. The primary goal of such pages is typically to harvest the 24-word recovery phrase, which gives attackers full control over a user's crypto assets.

Analysis complete

Page Content

The page content is almost entirely copied from the legitimate Ledger website, including product descriptions for the Stax and Nano series. It uses official branding, logos, and legal-sounding language to build trust. However, the presence of a 'Ledger Wallet' web gateway on an unofficial domain is a classic hallmark of a credential-harvesting operation.

Infrastructure

The site is hosted on IP 193.24.123.182 and uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate to display a security padlock, a common tactic used by scammers to appear professional. It loads resources from the real ledger.com domain to make the interface look functional while the top-level domain remains under the attacker's control.

Domain History

The domain 'ledger-live-application.io' is not an official Ledger property. Official Ledger services are hosted exclusively on ledger.com. The lack of WHOIS data and the absence of the site from global traffic indexes suggest this is a disposable domain registered specifically for a phishing campaign.

Web Reputation

Security engines including alphaMountain.ai, Chong Lua Dao, and Fortinet have blacklisted this domain. While it has not yet appeared on all major browser blocklists, the consensus among specialized threat intelligence providers is that the site is dangerous and intended for fraud.

Crypto scam / wallet-drainer indicators

The page shows patterns common to crypto-investment scams, fake airdrops, and wallet drainers.

  • Do not interact with app.ledger-live-application.io

    Do not enter credentials, deposit money, download files, or install browser extensions from this site.

  • Never paste your seed phrase anywhere

    Legitimate wallets, exchanges and support staff will never ask for your 12/24-word recovery phrase. Typing it into any website — even one that looks real — gives attackers full access to your funds.

  • If you already connected a wallet

    Revoke token approvals immediately using revoke.cash or Etherscan's Token Approvals tool. Move remaining funds to a fresh wallet (new seed phrase). Assume the original wallet is compromised.

  • Report the wallet and URL

    File a report at IC3 (FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center) or your country's cybercrime portal. Recovery is unlikely, but reports help law enforcement map the network.
