On the 11th (local time), The Block announced that a hacker had seized the Ledger community's contract moderator account and temporarily took over the server, but that
According to a report posted on X-Platform, the hackers had instructed users to enter their seed phrases into an external website, which they then used to send a warning.
Quintin Boatright, a community manager at Ledger, said the users who reported the abuse were blocked or muted.
Boatwright said in a Discord server announcement that "the account of one of our contract moderators was hacked, allowing malicious bots to post fraudulent links to certain channels."
"The issue was quickly brought under control, the hacked accounts were removed, the bots were removed, the websites involved were reported and the server permissions were fully restored," the company said.
Meanwhile, apart from this incident, some leisure customers have recently reported being scammed through actual mail with the official logo printed on it.
The letter included instructions to enter a seed phrase to verify the device, raising the possibility that the data leaked in the 2020 leisure customer information leak incident was used.
Boatright said, "We have taken additional steps to strengthen Discord's security," and added, "We will never connect or recover wallets through Discord links.
Please refrain from typing the phrase."
