Fake Ledger Site Tops Google Search, Targets 24-Word Recovery Phrases

The search-ranking success of a phishing site is the more systemic issue: recovery-phrase scams are cheap to deploy and hard to police, and a million visits in a month suggests brand-adjacent keywords remain an efficient funnel. The timing compounds it, since a suspected reseller-linked theft already has Ledger customers questioning where their exposure begins. The open questions are whether search platforms treat seed-phrase phishing as a distinct enforcement problem, and whether the reseller investigation clarifies how much of that loss traces back to the supply chain rather than user error.
