GoPlus Warns of Mini-Program Scam Targeting Telegram Users

Bittime - Web3 security firm GoPlus has issued a security alert about a new scam targeting Telegram users. 

Fraudsters disguise themselves as Fragment's official mini-programs, sending misleading high-priced acquisition proposals to unsuspecting users.

How Fraud Works

This scam operates by luring users to click on fake mini-program links sent via private messages. Once clicked, users may unknowingly authorize the account, giving fraudsters access to steal their wallet assets. 

These fake mini-programs are designed to resemble Fragment's official mini-programs, making it difficult for users to differentiate between the two.
