“The number of phishing domains allegedly associated with a Telegram Premium subscription in January of this year was 21. At the same time, for the whole of January 2023 there were only nine,” said Igor Bederov, head of the information and analytical research department at T.Hunter.
It is noted that attackers create phishing sites and promise users a subscription as a gift or offer to purchase it at a discount.
Earlier, Sberbank spoke about a new fraud scheme, in which attackers create fake accounts of directors in instant messengers.
