Generally not true. The actual risk from phantom with a ribbon is if there is a short in the cable. While it is generally a good idea not to run phantom to a ribbon (unless it is an active ribbon requiring phantom) because of the possible risk from a bad cable, phantom power itself doesn't damage ribbons. And when it does, it's catastrophic so you would know if your mic was damaged -- it would not be working. So if your mic works, it's fine.
