Is us-desktop-lives.wixstudio.com legit or a scam?
Phishing clone of Ledger Live crypto wallet hosted on Wix Studio, flagged by ESET and Gridinsoft plus confirmed scam reports.
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.
Analysis Summary
MT Intelligence
The site mimics official Ledger Live Desktop branding and content to harvest crypto credentials. ESET and Gridinsoft both detected phishing, while the hosting IP carries 18 abuse reports. Our research found two direct scam reports labeling it a cryptocurrency phishing site targeting Ledger users. It belongs to a cluster of similar Wix Studio subdomains impersonating the same wallet. The visual scan showed a 404 page, but the clone indicators and external confirmations override that snapshot. The combination of detections, abuse history, and explicit scam listings makes the malicious intent clear.
