Inspection Essentials for Ledger Purchased Through a Daigou
Overview: Key points you should know about: Inspection Essentials for Ledger Purchased Through a Daigou.
Key takeaway: Second-hand and daigou channels are high-risk. Always factory-reset and re-initialise; return the device at the first anomaly and never trust suspicious units with real assets.
Action steps:
- Prefer the official or authorised channel — second-hand carries high risk.
- On arrival, first check seals and tamper stickers.
- Factory-reset the device and initialise with a fresh recovery phrase.
- Check for any residual unofficial apps or settings.
- If anything seems off, return the device and do not transfer assets.
Safety reminder: Never enter your recovery phrase or PIN into a device or software whose authenticity you haven't verified. If a seal or serial number looks abnormal, stop using the device immediately, contact official support, and — if needed — switch to a new unit and migrate your assets.
