"The chat is being moved to a new group." Telegram users are warned about a new scam trick
Suspicious messages offering to move to a new group have begun appearing in Telegram group chats.
Users are urged not to click on unknown links or buttons to avoid putting their accounts at risk, notes Onliner.by.
Judging by the submitted screenshot, the messages appear directly in shared chats and are addressed to specific members. They state that the conversation is allegedly being moved to a new group.
To proceed, users are prompted to tap on the message text and then click the "Start" button.
Such messages may be used to redirect users to fraudulent bots or third-party websites.
Users are advised not to follow suspicious links and not to press unfamiliar buttons, even if the message appears in a familiar group chat.
