Telegram is becoming a place now of scammers and hackers.

They are sending malware to automatically steal all your info's. Good tutorial and warning for the users, I don't use it but I always see a lot of complains about those malwares.

Thanks for your advice. I think that hackers always try to steal our money or data by any ways.

Some malware does and I think those malware that are transferred and shared through those channels sole purpose is to steal info and snip potential private keys.
