How to Check That the Ledger Seal and Outer Packaging Are Intact
Overview: Key points you should know about: How to Check That the Ledger Seal and Outer Packaging Are Intact.
Key takeaway: For inspection and first-time setup, confirm seals, serial number, and the initialisation flow are all official. Any prompt asking for the recovery phrase or PIN should halt the process immediately.
Action steps:
- Check the outer packaging and tamper stickers for prying marks or re-adhesion.
- Confirm the printed info matches the shipping slip.
- Photograph the seals, box corners, and serial number.
- If anything looks broken, stop unboxing and contact the seller immediately.
- Only proceed with initialisation once everything checks out.
Safety reminder: Never enter your recovery phrase or PIN into a device or software whose authenticity you haven't verified. If a seal or serial number looks abnormal, stop using the device immediately, contact official support, and — if needed — switch to a new unit and migrate your assets.
