I can suggest to don't ever buy a hardware wallet except from the official store. There are tons of incidents where hardware wallet has been bugged, meaning, its internal hardware is already manipulated that if you store funds in it, it could be stolen.

Wow I didn't know about this, generally all I have ever hear Is that most stolen funds ends up happening because of phishing sites rather than hardware tampering.

Could sm1 expand more on this plz.
 
The only reason I was getting jittery is because i found that article in 2018 about the completely fake trezors.

Again any assurance would be very appreciated.
