HYDERABAD: Cybercriminals on Sunday compromised a TV channel reporter’s phone and sent APK files to several Telangana Cabinet ministers’ WhatsApp groups that were being run by their PROs to share information with the media.
The hackers renamed the groups as “SBI” and asked members to update their Aadhaar details using APK files. However, alerted admins of the groups removed the victim from their groups and also alerted the other members.
