Any link sent to you from a stranger should be viewed with distrust. Telegram fraud has become very sophisticated these days. In my country, they spread a message like, "Look, you're on the news," or ask, "Is that you in the photo?" and send a file with the extension ... apk. After you click on the link, all your funds are debited from your cards if they are linked to your phone. The same thing happens with the distribution of fake links from our Telegram crypto groups that we subscribe to receive news. We don't know the people who sent the links, and we shouldn't trust them. But there is another thing: scammers have learned to hack Telegram accounts. Even after receiving a link from people you know, still be extremely careful. Sometimes bad things can be sent from acquaintances.
More than that, not only we have to be careful and distrust any link that was sent to us from strangers, we also have to be careful that any link that sent to us even from our colleagues, they might have became a victim to scam and the scammer is operating their account and sent a link to their associate contacts. We could as well ask questioned them about the link, in case its a phising and they think that was a valid link, such us a website for gifts or discounts which asked them to share the link.
