🚨 Scammers using tactics like the fake "Safeguard" scheme are openly promoting their Telegram account-stealing methods. This video shows how it works⬇️
📩 They send you a Telegram message
🔗 Push you to "verify" something
🔢 You enter your login code
🎣 They grab your session info
💀 Your account is gone
Next, they search for private keys in bots. If they fully take over your account, they'll impersonate you to scam your friends.⚠️
Variations of this scam are spreading—like random messages warning of "account risks" and pushing fake security checks.
