FAKE LEDGER APP ON APPLE STORE WIPES OUT ENTIRE BTC HOLDINGS



A fake Ledger Live app on Apple’s Mac App Store just wiped out a user’s life savings.

American musician Garrett Dutton lost 5.92 $BTC ($424K) after downloading what looked like the official app and entering his 24-word seed phrase.

On-chain investigator ZachXBT traced the stolen Bitcoin exchange deposit addresses and publicly questioned how the app made it through Apple’s gatekeeping.
