Ledger confirms hardware implant in devices sold by reseller CryptoBilis stole crypto
Ledger has confirmed that at least one of its hardware wallets, sold through Malaysia-based reseller CryptoBilis, contained an unauthorized hardware implant that drained users' cryptocurrency funds. The company asked CryptoBilis to halt sales and shipments on October 9, and a day later confirmed the tampering, saying it is contacting affected users and working with authorities to find those responsible. Ledger says all reported fund losses trace back to devices from this one reseller and describes the scale of the breach as limited.
