In the wake of a significant data breach at Globale in January 2026, Ledger customers are now more vulnerable to phishing scams. Cybercriminals are leveraging the leaked order information to create convincing fraudulent messages, putting users at risk. The source reports that these scams have increased in frequency since the breach.
Scammers Exploit Exposed Data
Scammers are reportedly using the exposed data to craft messages that mimic legitimate communications, referencing actual purchases to gain the trust of unsuspecting victims. This tactic aims to bypass skepticism and lure customers into providing sensitive information.
Ledger's Warning to Users
In response to these threats, Ledger has issued a warning to its users, stressing the importance of treating unsolicited support messages with caution. The company advises customers to verify any communications through official channels to ensure their safety and protect their personal data from potential exploitation.
As Ledger warns its users about the rising phishing scams following a data breach, a recent report from Chainalysis reveals a significant increase in crypto scams, with losses reaching $17 billion in 2025. For more details, see more.
