Days later, former Mt. Gox CEO Mark Karpelès said that a Ledger Flex purchased at Singapore’s airport contained a spy implant.

Another Ledger user claimed to have a tampered device bought from local IT retailer Challenger. The user said he was later sent a new device from Ledger.

On Oct. 13, Ledger said it has asked retailers in Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, the Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Hong Kong to suspend sales of Ledger devices as investigations are ongoing.

Singapore police said it is in contact with Ledger, which is reviewing the affected cases, while police investigations are ongoing.
