Tips For Cyber Security Experts To Avoid Crypto Fraud On Telegram
JAKARTA - Cybersecurity researcher Kaspersky discovered a fraudulent scheme targeting Telegram users to steal crypto assets of Toncoin (TON), under the guise of an "exclusive income program".
In this scheme, first, the perpetrator will encourage the victim to join the unofficial Telegram bot, then at the same time, the fraudster will instruct potential victims to buy Toncoin through official channels.
Selanjutnya, korban diminta untuk melakukan pembelian booster menggunakan bot terpisah untuk mulai mendapatkan penghasilan. Setelah pembelian, pengguna kehilangan aset kriptonya dan tidak dapat ditarik kembali.
To avoid fraud of this type, Kaspersky researchers advise users to be careful of any offer that promises a number of charters quickly, even though the offer comes from friends or acquaintances.
