A fake Ledger Live app on the Apple App Store stole $9.5 million from over 50 people in just one week this April. Here's what happened: victims downloaded what they thought was the official app, then unknowingly entered their recovery seed phrases-giving attackers complete access to their Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Tron, and XRP wallets.
How to protect yourself:
• Always verify you're downloading from the official source
• Check the app publisher before installing
• NEVER enter your recovery phrase into any app-no exceptions
If this has happened to you, don't wait. File a report with federal law enforcement at IC3 and reach out. We work with attorney partners and provide forensic tracing to help recover stolen assets.
