im confused here.  So they want you to download something but isn't the nano ledger x and s not hackable?
Phishing and hacking are two different things. Your device wouldnt get hacked. The tool wants you to enter your seed words and send them to the hacker. It has been said many times before that the seed should never be entered into a software. It is only meant to be looked at on the hardware wallet.

Please stop bumping old topic with stupid questions, don't you know how to read? How can you be confused by something that is explained in a way that a child of 10 years can understand? Maybe you should stick to traditional banking, though I believe you have a problem with that as well, because you are not adopting the information you are getting. I have a feeling that at some point you will do something stupid and lose everything you have in crypto...



I'm not actually aware of anyone who fell for this phishing attempt (at least I didn't see anyone posting about having used the "Ledger SE Checker" and then losing all their coins Tongue)

There is warning about this on Reddit some 6 months old, and when it started I remember few users who were naive enough to share their seed with hackers. One is lost 600 ZEC (some $16k at that time), other $30k worth of BTC...
