For those of you unaware, currently Nano S Ledgers are being sold via eBay/Amazon with fake recovery phrases. In a recent post on Reddit, moodyrocket, had posted that all of his coins had been stolen. Needless to say when asked about his recovery sheet, they provided this interesting picture.

Reddit Thread "All My Cryptocurrency Stolen"

Nano S Ledger does not provide you with a scratch off or a provided key, YOU SET YOUR OWN PHRASE!

When you unbox your Nano S Ledger you're provided with a BLANK Recovery Phrase Sheet.

"Write down your recovery phrase on this sheet. 24 words will be displayed on your device when it is initialized. Make sure to copy each word below, it is a fun backup of your accounts and configuration."

Please stop buying these Ledgers from eBay / Amazon, buy directly from LEDGER. Although the wait times are long its well worth the wait knowing you're buying from them directly.
