If you used Ledger Live then it should have already checked if your device is genuine. If you weren't warned by the software then your device is not fake. Take a look at this article. Why does your friend think so?

Where did you buy it from? Hardware wallets should only be purchased from the official site or an official re-seller with links to the product.
It is a bad idea to buy new or used hardware wallets from third party sellers in order to save a few bucks.

There are 2 things to consider:

1) Legitimacy of the firmware:
Will be checked automatically when you start up ledger live. If you don't get any error message stating that the firmware is non-genuine, you are fine.

2) Legitimacy of the hardware:
You can open the case and check the hardware. There is a guide available from ledger.


Where did you get your nano s from ?
And why exactly does your friend claim it is fake ?
