KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 21 — CyberSecurity Malaysia issued a warning today about a fake phishing site imitating the MyKasih Sumbangan Asas Rahmah (Sara) website that is being spread on Telegram.
It said cybercriminals are using the phishing website to show a page similar to the login page of the eWallet service in Malaysia to target Telegram users and take over their user accounts for nefarious purposes.
“Users will receive a message with the fake website on their Telegram, and when the user clicks on the fake website, they will be taken to the phishing website where they are asked to enter their phone number.
“Cybercriminals will then use the information to log into the victim’s Telegram account and attempt to take it over,” the agency said in a statement, adding the website link has been shared across various Telegram groups.
