No wonder, he would have alerted others but being a human he made the same mistake by himself. I am just stunned too after getting this idea that hardware wallets are also not safe if we buy them from third parties. I never watched this person's videos but it do not go well for him. Like, maybe he fall prey to those scamming cost-effective ads of a ledger hardware wallet and think of buying them at a lower cost but instead, the side had been turned upside down for him.
I don't think so, now he can get them (money) back. He made a pretty big mistake by not getting advice from experienced ones he said there was a link to the website on the ledger's screen which he first thought odd but move on. after I watched his video why i am not convinced that he is telling the truth like he said my friends told me to not use this device from a third party but even then I bought, then this website link he sees on the screen even then he moved on and moving all of his money on that wallet instead he could just test it out like by sending little money to that wallet but no he transferred all of it. Plus I doubt him because he showed no proof of transaction on amazon buying that ledger.
Topic: Never, ever, buy your hardware wallet from a third-party - page 2. (Read 192 times)
Never buy your hardware wallet from any third party, even if the third-party sellers say that they are buying straight from an official source it's still not safe.
There is this favorite YouTuber of mine called CryptoJay, who has always tried to warn his viewers about buying their hardware wallet from a third party, I am pretty shocked that this guy went ahead to buy his Nano X from Amazon because he has purchased a lot of stuff from the website before.
Somehow these people knew or maybe receive an alert when this YouTuber starts to move his Bitcoin from his other wallets into this Nano X, all his Bitcoin and even ETH were wiped off.

I can't even remember how many times I've watched his videos warning people about crypto wallet safety because he is one of my favorite YouTubers, seeing him lose all the Bitcoin that he has been accumulating for years got my mood ruined.
I still can't figure out what makes him does something he have been warning others about, I mean, what could have cost him from buying from nano official website?
I hope someone sees this video, could safe some one from repeating this same mistake, hackers and scammers can buy many hardware wallets and put something on them, and then sell them through Amazon or eBay.
