It's incredible how there are still people who fall for this kind of obvious scam, since the main purpose of every hardware wallet is to keep the mnemonic phrase protected on the device; it should never be entered in any online environment, such as typing on a computer keyboard.

Why do you think there is a link between the fact that some scammers send such e-mails and the fact that there are still people who do not understand the correct way of using hardware wallets? The database that leaked from Ledger is used constantly, and the fact that someone emphasized this news is nothing specific, because everything always boils down to the same thing.
In addition, every seed generated by some HW is not only important to protect on the device itself in case it falls into the wrong hands or from possible remote attacks, but it should also be properly protected as a backup. The key feature of each HW is that it generates the seed offline in a secure environment, and that every action we perform on the same device must be physically confirmed by pressing a key/button.
