🚨 How to Spot Fake Ledger Support Scams

Scammers often impersonate Ledger via:

  • Fake emails (e.g., “Urgent: Your wallet is compromised!”).
  • Social media DMs (Twitter, Telegram, Discord).
  • Google ads leading to fake support sites.

Red Flags: ❌ Requests for your 24-word recovery phrase. ❌ Links to unofficial websites (e.g., ledger-support[.]com). ❌ Pressure tactics (“Act now or lose your funds!”).

Legitimate Ledger Support WILL NEVER ask for:

  • Your recovery phrase.
  • Remote access to your computer.
  • Payment for “priority assistance.”

  • Guides on security, staking, and troubleshooting.
