Is iostart-ledgeapp.wixstudio.com legit or a scam?
Ledger-wallet phishing page on a Wix Studio subdomain with confirmed reports on phishdestroy.io and urlquery.net.
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.

Intelligence
The page sits on iostart-ledgeapp.wixstudio.com and carries the exact naming pattern used by other documented Ledger impersonators. Four antivirus engines — Cluster25, ESET, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, and Webroot — flag the URL as phishing or malicious. The same Google Cloud IP hosts several other flagged subdomains that appear in blocklists and phishing feeds. The domain itself is nine years old, but the subdomain is a fresh user-created site with no business registration. Evidence from phishdestroy.io and urlquery.net explicitly lists this URL among Ledger Live phishing campaigns. The combination of brand impersonation, engine detections, and shared malicious infrastructure outweighs the clean browser blocklist status.
