SIAMBC can confirm that there is no fault with the Ledger itself, and that it was not hacked.

The method the attacker used was to alter the information displayed in the Chrome extension, so that a user who was not paying close attention sent their Bitcoin to the attacker's account instead.

The defence is to check the account you are sending Bitcoin to on the Ledger's own screen before pressing confirm. The same applies when receiving into a Ledger, because an attacker can also change the receiving address shown on the computer.

To make the address appear on the Ledger screen, use the button shown in the image below.
