[Beware] Phishing Attempt on Ledger

[Zed0X]

Be careful everyone. Scammers will always try to steal your funds in whatever way they can. They can send phishing links to your email, to your social media accounts, and even in forums like this one. As always, don't open those links you receive via private messages and those you see on social media.


Check out the latest warning from Ledger.

From their blog: https://support.ledger.com/hc/en-us/articles/360035343054-Warning-Beware-of-phishing-attempts

We've received reports from users falling victim to phishing attacks on social media such as Reddit, Twitter, Facebook. Users are either directly asked to provide their 24-word recovery phrase, or led to fake Ledger websites that ask them to enter their 24-word recovery phrase.

Thank you for this information. I bought Ledger Nano S just last week and deposited some BTC and ETH. I am actually not falling for those phishing emails because I always check its recipient if its coming from the official website or not.

On top of that, I never click links on the phishing email. I always go to the official website of some wallets or tokens that I’m in and verify if this email was actually coming from them or not.

I’m a phishing victim before, and I’ve learned the hard way and becoming smarter this time.

Yes, the answer is good, but there is a question, what are phishing emails?

Phishing emails try to get you to enter in your login details for a website by posing as something else or asking you to follow a link that is not the original site but just looks like one.
It can be in the form of an app as well. Anything that you use to login to a website.

If you know what steam is, then once I went to the alleged site for betting, I had to go to the site through Steam, I enter this one, I think that the site is original, but it turned out to be a phishing site, as a result, my account was hacked, but it's good Support could return my account to me. Since then, I’m not doing this.
