Just read about someone that was scammed for 35k from a ledger Nano s bought from eBay. The ledger had already been set up and the seller made a legit looking scratch card with the 24 recovery phrase on it, subsequently logged in and stole his funds.

I bought myn on Amazon, I am right in assuming that the 24 word phrase can only be viewed once. When I set myn up I was given the words in order which I have stored in a safe place. Myn can be compromised can it as i was given the word combination on set up?
It's very risky buying hardware wallets from suspisious sellers,but the thing is Nano ledger currently is out of stock on the official site so you can buy it only pre-ordered with a two month delay.People dont want to wait for a long time and this is the reason why they do such stupid things.
