even a latest hardware wallet. a hacker can simply set up a phished/emulating GUI display to show "error with device. to reset device please re enter your seed" or whatever their error pages look like to get people to type it in.

Are there any hardware wallets that actually ask you to do something like that in any circumstances? If yes, then that's a very dangerous thing to have. So far I've been using only Ledger and the only way to enter seed phrase was directly using the device and not via Ledger Live app so if any message like that pop up, Ledger users should know that it is a fake. Not that it would stop some people entering seed anyway.

Yeah if I saw a message like that pop up on any damned device, I'd know I was hacked and immediately wash off.

Problem is, and I'm sure I'm not exaggerating, most people, not some, would enter their seed phrase if they saw a message requesting it.

Now that actually reminds me that I've rarely seen warning messages about never ever responding to seed phrase requests...
