WARNING: New Type of Telegram Attacks Fool Admins Into Bot Takeovers
@takebackourtech | ADVISORY
Do you run a Telegram group? Be very careful when promoting bots to administration positions.
I have observed attackers mimicking the profiles of popular group management bots. Their plan is to sit in your group and hope you promote one of their fake profiles to become an administrator.
Once that happens they will attempt to take over your group from you. Here's an example of the attack.
Always search for bots by their exact username, confirm this on the bot's developer site.

I wish my local goodwill stores were had cool stuff like that.
The best I can get is some fitness equipment in February.
