Brand-impersonating 'Ledger' domain flagged as phishing by antivirus vendors and PhishTank
ledger-bitcoin-recovery-security.com is a 258-day-old domain that borrows the Ledger brand name and presents itself as 'Ledger Bitcoin Recovery: Essential Security Recommendations for Wallet Protection'. It is flagged as a phishing site by 15 independent antivirus families and listed on PhishTank, while the site itself currently returns HTTP 522 errors so its own pages could not be reviewed. The combination of brand impersonation, phishing detections and an unreachable storefront places it in the Dangerous band.

Act quickly: the first hours matter most for a chargeback.
- Call your bank or card issuer now
Ask them to dispute the charge or open a chargeback; the sooner you act, the better your odds. Card payments can often be reversed. Bank transfers and gift cards are harder, but report them to your bank too. Crypto payments usually cannot be reversed: report the wallet address and transaction ID to the exchange you sent from.
- Change any password you entered
If you entered a password on ledger-bitcoin-recovery-security.com, change it there and anywhere you reused it, and turn on two-factor authentication. Keep screenshots, order confirmations and messages as evidence.
- Report the site
Reports help get scam sites taken down faster and warn other people.
- Report the domain to its registrar
Hello Internet Corp takes abuse reports at abuse@hello.co (+1.9175129417). Include the address and what happened.
- Ignore anyone offering to recover your money
"Recovery" services or agents who contact you, or ask for a fee up front, are almost always a second scam aimed at victims. Your bank's dispute process and the official reporting services never charge a fee in advance.

01 · Investigation Brief
Investigation Brief
ledger-bitcoin-recovery-security.com is a 258-day-old domain that borrows the Ledger brand name and presents itself as 'Ledger Bitcoin Recovery: Essential Security Recommendations for Wallet Protection'. It is flagged as a phishing site by 15 independent antivirus families and listed on PhishTank, while the site itself currently returns HTTP 522 errors so its own pages could not be reviewed. The combination of brand impersonation, phishing detections and an unreachable storefront places it in the Dangerous band.
Phishing detections and brand impersonation
The saved antivirus observation records that 15 independent antivirus families reported an adverse result for this host, with named engines including alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender and Chong Lua Dao. That is a strong, target-bound detection rather than a category guess.
Independent research adds a PhishTank listing for the same URL, which is a public phishing-report feed. Together these two sources describe the site as a phishing threat rather than a legitimate security resource.
The domain name itself combines the Ledger brand with 'bitcoin-recovery-security', and the visible page title reads 'Ledger Bitcoin Recovery: Essential Security Recommendations for Wallet Protection'. That framing mimics a wallet-security advisory while sitting on a domain that is not an official Ledger property.
Technical checks versus operator risk
The site's own page, contact, About and policy text could not be reviewed because the server returned HTTP 522 both over HTTP and HTTPS. That means the specific credential-harvesting mechanics could not be confirmed from the site itself, and the phishing assessment rests on the antivirus and PhishTank evidence.
A valid TLS certificate exists for the host, but the scanned address was served over plain HTTP with no redirect to HTTPS, so any connection to it was unencrypted. The browser threat feed returned no threat warning, which is a single clean signal that does not outweigh the phishing detections.
The registrable domain is 258 days old, so it is a recent registration with no long-standing reputation to offset the adverse findings. The operator identity is not independently verified beyond the brand-impersonating domain name.
Why the score is 12
15 independent antivirus families reported an adverse result. This comes from a saved antivirus observation rather than a new submission, so treat the detection as real but confirm the timing. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.
