⚡️🚨 NEW - More than $86 million has reportedly already been stolen from Ledger users who purchased their devices from the reseller CryptoBilis in Southeast Asia.
Ledger is currently investigating several reports of lost funds and has asked CryptoBilis to immediately suspend all sales and shipments of its devices.
For now, the company states that the reports pertain to this specific reseller and that the exact cause of the incident has not yet been officially determined.
Ledger recommends that anyone who has purchased a device from CryptoBilis in the last 90 days should not set it up if it has not already been set up.
For those who have already used it, the company advises considering transferring their assets to a new wallet using a brand-new recovery phrase.
More than $86 million has reportedly already been stolen from Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Tron, according to an on-chain investigator.
This amount has not yet been confirmed by Ledger, but if the estimate proves accurate, the case could become one of the most significant incidents ever linked to a hardware wallet’s distribution chain.
