Any link sent to you from a stranger should be viewed with distrust. Telegram fraud has become very sophisticated these days.

Links, files like animated images, videos need to be ignored and avoid to download them.

How to disable auto media download in Telegram.

Turning the automatic download feature for your Telegram account, and avoid clicking on any unsolicited links and files.

I thought the Telegram media auto downloads only for images/video files. So let's say even any files that auto-downloaded by telegram, are safe since they are media files (video or image) and that is impossible file could be infected by any malware?? I'm not sure.

Once in the Telegram group, users are immediately prompted to verify through OfficiaISafeguardBot. This fake bot creates artificial urgency with extremely short verification windows. The verification process secretly injects malicious PowerShell code into your clipboard. When executed, it downloads and runs malware that can compromise your system and crypto wallets.

Scary ASF!!!!!!

I believe there's a file that user downloaded if this kind of malware was able to went inside to your system.
