These malware's are very common on Telegram Telegram especially, just last week I fell for one and got every file on my phone wiped off, it was a very painful experience for me. I learnt my lesson though, it's just sad I had to learn the hard way. This post has gone a step further in preventing more people from falling.

It's quite unfortunate that malware are also sent via telegram. I feel so scared because of the prevalence of telegram airdrop bots which has been deployed by projects for the execution of airdrop, i only hope that the bots are not hijacked by hackers and used to take advantage of the phones of individuals.

Airdrops is actually a risky venture owing to the fact that one needs to consistently input personal information into forms and this may be used by the hackers or bots to get out passwords. Its always good to be very sure and very careful carrying out airdrops task.

This is so sad. I think a solution to this would be a good project to recommend, not a typical AV but an anti-virus specifically designed to combat this problem or minimize the risk
