Ledger Rug & Rektober Scam: Crypto Trust Issues on Two Fronts
Alongside the Ledger hardware hack, crypto influencer @rektober hard-rugged a 600 SOL presale, deleted his account, and is only slowly refunding buyers after being doxxed — highlighting ongoing scam risks in the ecosystem.
What we know
An account on X RTs another account on X's report that another account on X collected over 600 SOL, hard rugged, deleted his Twitter account, and only began partial refunds after being doxxed and having his location exposed. A prior RT adds that Rektober has a documented history of past scams. This surfaces on the same day as the Ledger European hardware supply chain attack, creating a dual trust crisis narrative for the ecosystem.
