Ledger to Southeast Asia Buyers: Do Not Set Up the Device, Move the Assets
Ledger asked a reseller to stop shipping devices. Buyers from the last 90 days were told not to set up, and to move assets to a new seed.
Ledger says it is looking into reports of lost funds. The users are in Southeast Asia. They bought devices from a reseller called CryptoBillis.[1]
Ledger asked the reseller to stop all sales and shipments of its devices.[1] Buyers from the last 90 days should not start setup. Those who already set up should think about moving their assets to a new signer with a new seed.[1]
The notice gave no loss amount, no victim count, and no confirmed method of attack.[2]
What to do: wait on setup if you bought from that reseller in the last 90 days. If the device is already running, move your assets to a new signer with a new seed.[1]
