🚨 IMPORTANT: Ledger Users Targeted in New Phishing Scam
Do you use a Ledger? If yes, you MUST read this!
A new wave of phishing emails is targeting Ledger users, posing a serious threat to cryptocurrency holdings. The scam attempts to trick users into activating a fake security feature called “Ledger Clear Signing,” claiming that action is required by October 31 to continue using their devices.
These emails — not sent from official Ledger addresses — direct recipients to a malicious link, urging them to activate the so-called security feature. The phishing email warns:
"To continue using your Ledger device securely, activating Clear Signing is mandatory starting November 1, 2024. This feature is essential in protecting your assets from phishing attacks and fraudulent activities that are becoming more sophisticated.”
These scam emails are well-disguised, playing on users’ fears of phishing attacks to ironically lure them into a phishing trap. Once users follow the link, they are prompted to share sensitive information, which scammers use to drain their accounts.
Stay Vigilant:
Do not click suspicious links or engage with emails not from official Ledger sources.
Never share your recovery phrase or personal information through any email or message.
Why Ledger Users Are a Prime Target:
Ledger hardware wallets are among the most trusted in the industry, making them prime targets for scammers. This “clean Ledger scam” was flagged by Thomas Roccia, a senior threat researcher at Microsoft, who confirmed that the phishing URL has no relation to Ledger.
Phishing attacks like these are becoming more sophisticated every day. Protect your assets by ensuring that you only use official communication channels and verify the authenticity of any request.
Stay safe, Ledger users! Like and share this, so people don't lose their money!
