Lost $36k in Crypto Scam on Fake Ledger Site

All Cryptocurrencies

Well didn't think I would be posting something like this but here I am. I've been a holder of BTC/ETH for years, got a Ledger Wallet a while ago and it's been sitting in my drawer. I decided I wanted to transfer some out so I got my Nano X out, entered my pin, and connected to my phone. Before I could transfer I had to do a mandatory firmware update, and had to connect to my desktop. It's been a while and recently got a new laptop so I forgot it was a dedicated app.

Without really thinking I google Ledger Live and clicked on the first link, it looked like the real site and it said I needed to update my firmware which I did. I then clicked on the next step and forgot the only crypto rule. It was a screen to enter my 24 word phrase and I did.

It took a me a few minutes to notice my mess up and saw my funds gone. Was pretty stunned and upset with myself. Filed with the IC3 but realize there is a 0% chance of getting it back but figured I share here for awareness even if it was completely obvious and also don't know what else to do. Still processing this
