Fraudsters have come up with a new way to steal accounts in Telegram. Now they pose as security officers and steal data using a phishing link.
The attackers sent the target number many requests to receive a verification code to log into the messenger. This created anxiety for the user, he realized that someone wanted to log into Telegram from his account.
To "calm" the victim, the attackers sent him a link from a fake account under the name Telegram Security Messenger. The user was notified that attempts to log out were recorded through his account.
In order to "increase" security, the victim was offered to follow the link. After the transition, the attacker received data to log into the account.
Earlier www1.ru reported that fraudsters in Russia began to get access to "Gosuslugi" using old SIM cards.
