Did It Spread Beyond Southeast Asia? The MediaMarkt And Singapore Reports

-

The story widened on Oct. 13, when MediaMarkt Saturn stopped selling Ledger devices in stores and online after a customer in Germany reported an implant. 

Ledger said no funds were lost in that German case, and that it had not verified a drain linked to a device bought elsewhere.

Separate user reports claimed implants in devices bought at different MediaMarkt locations, and former Mt. Gox CEO Mark Karpelès also said a Ledger Flex bought at Singapore's airport contained a spy implant. 

Those specific claims have not been independently verified by Ledger, and Ledger has not confirmed whether the European reports are linked to CryptoBilis.

Ledger also asked resellers and distributors in Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, the Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Hong Kong to suspend sales while the investigation continued. 

The widening geography — confirmed in Southeast Asia, reported elsewhere — is why the incident became an industry-wide supply-chain conversation, not just a single-reseller story.
