How to Tell Real Promotion Links from Fake Ones
Overview: How do you judge whether a promotional link is genuine or a scam?
Key takeaway: Always buy from Ledger's official store or an authorised reseller, inspect the tamper-evident seals and serial number on arrival, and treat any request for your recovery phrase or PIN as a scam.
Action / decision points:
- Don't click promotional links whose origin you can't verify.
- Type the domain into the browser manually and compare the page.
- Check the TLS certificate and publisher info to confirm it's Ledger's official site.
- Compare the price and campaign against the official announcement page to rule out spoofing.
- If it's a fake link, close it, report it, and enter no information at all.
Safety reminder: Never share your recovery phrase or PIN with anyone. Low prices and unknown channels are high-risk; verify authorisation and seals, and if you have any doubts, cancel the order or return the device immediately.
