KUALA LUMPUR:
CyberSecurity Malaysia issued a warning today about a fake phishing site on Telegram that is imitating the MyKasih Sumbangan Asas Rahmah (SARA) website.

CyberSecurity Malaysia said the phishing website shows a page similar to the login page of the eWallet service in Malaysia to target Telegram users and take over their user accounts.

“Users will receive a message with the fake website on their Telegram.

“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.

“The information will then be used by cybercriminals to log into the victim’s Telegram account and attempt to take it over,” the agency said in a statement today.

It said the website link had been shared across various Telegram groups.
