Anon bought a $LEDGER Flex at Singapore airport for ~$300. Got home, noticed the device looked tampered with — scratches and marks like someone already opened it. Never even plugged it in.
Sent it to Mark Karpelès to tear down and inspect.
This is why you NEVER buy hardware wallets from random retailers, airports, or third parties. Supply chain attacks are real. One malicious chip = your entire portfolio gone.
Always:
✅ Buy direct from manufacturer
✅ Verify tamper seals
✅ Check firmware signatures
Your keys, your coins. Your carelessness, someone else's coins.
