Thanks for those who have reported the site. However, the cat and mouse game continues as another one pop up in the radar:

I tried to visit this website and saw message that Account was suspended. I also got warning from antivirus about malware. Seems it was typical phishing website with minor changes in domain name.
Let's report it, so it will take down as soon as possible, in the OP, there's a email provided for abuse. The email is: [email protected] , and phone number too it you can send some message or call. This should be take down as soon as possible so it will not cause future damage.

This is very common now, lot of fake website spreading, especially on some cryptocurrency wallets.
That's good idea. Reporting phishing website to hosting provider is probably fastest way to close such websites. In past I saw lot of suggestion to report phishing websites to Google, but we rarely can see reaction from them. It's enough to remember how many times Bitcointalk.to was reported...

I get an Account Suspender error when trying to access the site from Tor (my antivirus already blocks the site, so Tor is the easiest way to try to see the site). With a bit of luck, the site is not going to be reachable, but it does seem to be a recurring attempt to pry on a misspelt typing when looking for an URL.

In any case, the site seemed to be one of those classical cases that end up that your ledger is damages and asks for the recovery mnemonic: https://www.reddit.com/r/ledgerwallet/comments/e2a3dv/fake_ledger_ledgrecom_be_careful/

I've just seen the above site in this thread: Tool For Catch Phishing. It shows all similar named potential DNS, and it gives us an idea how easy it is to make a typing mistake and end up on a wrong site.

Baofeng, I check the link and got -> Account Suspended page. Is this a page that sells fake devices, or is it a page that tries to get users to enter their seed? I think this is just one in a series of attempts to trick inexperienced users, because anyone who has ever visited the original Ledger site and knows what a seed is, will never fall for this trick.

I also agree with you because if we do not take good care of our side we will be facing scams That's why we need to stay away from fake laser websites We need to look at all the sides of the job for work and avoid scams After completing the work you should check and save it if necessary Then we can stay away from scams.

It is improbable that one would type in this variation of the ledger website if it's done manually, the scammers would list probably spam various emails, groups, and forums with the phishing link and hope someone clicks on it without reading properly through.
Do not click on important links gotten from unsolicited messages or emails.
Do basic research on any site that involves finances.
Check every new site (the one you've not encountered before but want to explore) for possible scam links. You can do this by adding scam to the keyword and Google searching, also run it through the forums scam accusation section.

Thanks for letting this know. There is minor difference of letter of Ledgre and Ledger and anyone can be scammed if not taken care. I always bookmark the important financial sites  so i can avoid these types of scams.

You really have to admire those criminals, so again, holidays are here, and someone might think of getting a hardware wallet so be very very careful.
