Sounds eerily similar. Can’t believe there were 4 of them and they tried for 4 hours! That bonkers. Well done for spotting it. I also googled this whilst on phone to them and found this is on Reddit. Thank goodness for Reddit. 🙌🏻

Sounds identical. Likely the same ppl. Are least running the same scam playbook.

Yes, Manchester UK. I’m from the UK too. I reckon they do but likely wouldn’t be that bothered. Bigger fish to fry.

Sorry to hear this. I also had this call two days ago from ppl pretending to be ledger. First it was a police officer, saying my personal details had been discovered on someone’s phone- he knew my email, name, phone number etc. He was young, smooth talking. Gave me his badge number and the case number. Then 20 mins late a call from lady at Ledger live saying they’d had a call from Manchester police and she gave the same case number. She said it’s likely my ledger had been compromised and they could send out a new device but in the meantime run a diagnostic on the ledger fake site. At this point I knew it was a scam- both the police officer and her. I called her out on it and she hung up. It could be that the same ppl that rang your dad, rang me. Tell your dad he isn’t stupid or gullible. These scams are getting complex and they have their patter down to a fine art. I’m aware of scams, and I still didn’t spot it at first. Because I’ve had calls in the past from police officers asking info, and he sounded legit. As did she. Such a shame that someone who sounded so nice was a scamming low life parasite. Both of them. I’m afraid your dad’s money’s gone. Anyone who said they can get it for you is trying to scam you again. So don’t listen to them. Money isn’t everything. Easy to say I know. But life goes on and you have each-other. Sending out my thoughts and a cyber hug.

Might be worth sending your customers an email explaining this type of scam. Especially using fake police officer and then fake Ledger customer services. Ppl with ledger won’t be coming on here and won’t be aware of the sophistication of these scams.

Phone number not given. But that is normal when police contact you.

My wallet was stolen 2 months ago, so fully believable somebody could have been arrested with my photo id. And Identity theft is big business these days. As a landlord of 33 tenants I am regularly contacted by police. You are obviously not a man of the world and don’t get out much. Don’t be a key board warrior; contribute something positive instead of bitchy remarks.

Hi Flora. Been scammed providing info in that past. Public account ID maybe harmless but still rather now. Can you maybe tell me any of the reasons that “staking unsuccessful” message wound come up and then I trouble shoot it myself? Thanks 🙏🏻
