Tons of ecosystems flooded with phishing attacks!

One of the favorite coins for Telegram users this year was the TON coin created by Telegram. This Telegram coin is very popular with the customers and also the associated Knot coin is very popular. But in recent times Telegram-connected blockchain platform The Open Network (TON) has been under pressure from phishing attacks on its ecosystem.
TON is currently a popular ecosystem and an ecosystem that includes various decentralized applications (DApps) and tokens based on the TON blockchain. But amid its turbulent growth this year, it has increasingly been targeted by phishing attackers. The founder of SlowMist recently wrote in his former Twitter and current X post that there is more phishing activity in the TON ecosystem.

Phishing vulnerabilities in the TON ecosystem are linked to easy access to message groups by scammers. Whatever these ecosystems are where they post phishing links. It has recently become very popular among users. Especially the Telegram ecosystem offered very free for the users. And many phishing links - or bot forms - are spread through message groups, airdrops and other fraudulent methods to lure users with TON wallets in batches. But many people involved with it are at risk especially those users who are Telegram users with anonymous number are more at risk.

Phishing risk on Telegram Messenger is high especially for users who have anonymous numbers. Specifically, these are anonymous users who are used to create Telegram accounts that are not tied to a SIM card. If all these anonymous accounts are phished, it means that the corresponding Telegram account can also be lost. However, to avoid these phishing attacks, the user must enable an independent password or two-step verification to keep his account very safe and secure.

However, Telegram had introduced this feature to its users of the anonymous number option two years ago and it had the facility for users to log in to Telegram without using a SIM card. This facility was offered by Telegram Authority for parents.

Telegram offered these facilities especially for anonymous users without SIM card. Telegram offered such facilities to its users instead of relying on a SIM card. Users can log in using blockchain-based anonymous numbers available on platforms like Fragment. However, amid the exponential growth of TON this year after offering these benefits, many security platforms are warning users against phishing and scam attacks.

However, earlier this year security experts at cybersecurity firm Kaspersky issued a warning to users of the TON ecosystem, warning the public against a major scam involving the ecosystem in particular. Warnings are issued to users and states that the scam scheme involves tools such as unofficial Telegram bots. And this is the wallet used by users of this ecosystem to steal their coins. Even more important is the ID issue that links Telegram's third-party cryptocurrency wallet to the bot system.
