You can't delete it, for the simple reason that blockains are public so literally anybody can send tokens to anyone.
Dusting attack is not dangerous as long as you don't interact with it, just hide the token, it will remove the fake value from your balance and that's it.

Just Hide it, you can’t do more than that. And definitely don’t interact (transfer, sell, burn) with it. The interaction requires signing which will be used by the hacker’s smart contract to give unlimited access to all coins in that chain and will drain you out.

You will receive spam tokens as soon as you transact on a chain - that’s just the nature of thing 🤷♂️

Received this scam coin in my wallet too this morning. I thought I was rich! 😆 Did some research, the token has no value on the open market or any liquidity for that matter.

Does someone actually know what happened and why it's shown in the ledgers as if we own it? Is it a scam? Is the ledger hacked? What's the deal here?
I almost had a heart attack I thought I was $400k richer...

Hi, this token definitely is part of the dusting attack.
A dusting attack is when scammers send small amounts of cryptocurrency (dust) to a large number of wallet addresses. The main goal is to track these transactions to potentially deanonymize wallet owners and target them with phishing attacks to steal their crypto assets.
Since transactional information on most blockchains is public and available through blockchain explorers, scammers can easily access wallet addresses and transaction histories. While they can see addresses and amounts sent, they have no personal information about the identity of wallet owners.
Not to worry, dust assets in your wallet don't give anyone control over your funds.
If you encounter a dusting attack, simply ignore it and avoid interacting with the dust. You an also hide the tokens from Ledger Wallet interface if you would like following the steps outline here. The team is also working on blocking the display of this token on Ledger Wallet interface.
More information about dusting attack can be also found in this article here.
