Watch how this Telegram scam actually works—and why you need to be careful.

The attacker creates a fake support bot that mimics legitimate services. When victims interact, they're prompted to "press a button" or paste a verification code. Sounds harmless, right? Wrong.

Every keystroke gets logged instantly. Your credentials, recovery phrases, 2FA codes—captured in seconds on attacker's dashboard. By the time you realize something's off, access to your wallet is already compromised.

This is one of the most prevalent attack vectors targeting crypto users in Telegram groups. The bot looks convincing. The requests seem reasonable. But the damage is irreversible.

If any service asks you to paste sensitive data into Telegram—even with a slick interface—it's a scam. Always verify through official channels directly.
