Scam or legit?
Your hardware wallet arrives. Something about the packaging looks off.
Vaultly One
Shipped by: Vaultly (official store)Box seal: Looks re-applied
In the box:
- Vaultly One device
- Tamper-evident stickerEdge is lifted and slightly crooked
- Activation card"Scan the QR code and enter your recovery phrase to activate your warranty"
How to spot this (Package with a lifted seal and an "activation" card)
- Re-applied or broken seals can mean the box was opened in transit.
- No warranty or activation ever needs your phrase. Extra inserts are a known tampering tactic.
Remember: Broken seals or extra cards asking for your phrase: don't set it up. Contact the maker through its official site.
