A short first-hand victim report: an Mk3 with no passphrase, swept on 31 July, for 60,615 sats, which the poster values at about US$40. Held as one more first-person account at the very small end of the loss distribution, useful against the accountings that count value rather than wallets. Two screenshots are attached. The account is self-reported and the wallet is not identified, so neither the device model nor the sweep is confirmed here.

This post is registered as evidence and has a locally held capture. The original remains the canonical publication.
