MediaMarktSaturn pulls Ledger products amid tampering reports
- Published
MediaMarktSaturn removed Ledger products from stores and online platforms while reports about tampering broadened beyond the CryptoBilis case in Southeast Asia. The retailer’s parent said it was contacting Ledger after customers reported unauthorized cables and cellular modules in purchased wallets.
Key claims & sources
What it means
Customers who bought or were considering Ledger devices from MediaMarktSaturn are affected immediately because the products were removed from stores and online platforms. That makes the wallets unavailable through that retailer for now, and it also puts the tampering reports in front of shoppers in Europe the next morning.
What changes in practice is that the retailer is no longer offering Ledger products through its stores and online channel, while contact with the manufacturer is underway. What stays the same is that the reports themselves remain open, including the references to unauthorized hardware implants and to unauthorized cables and cellular modules in purchased wallets.
