SafePal urges users to verify hardware wallets after CryptoBilis scandal

—SafePal is monitoring loss reports from Ledger buyers via CryptoBilis
—Users are advised to verify device certification during initialization
—A second check is the first activation date shown in the SafePal app
—Any anomaly should prompt users to stop using the device and contact support

Why it matters: The reseller tampering scandal raises supply-chain risks for self-custody and pushes wallet users to verify device authenticity.
