  • Ministry of Public Security: Telecom fraud groups are using blockchain, virtual currency and AI technology to upgrade their criminal methods

     Beijing Business Daily reported that at a press conference held by the Ministry of Public Security on January 10, it was announced that as of the end of 2024, more than 53,000 Chinese criminal suspects involved in telecommunications fraud in Myanmar's northern region have been arrested, and the "Four Major Families" criminal groups in Myanmar's northern region have been successfully destroyed. The Ministry of Public Security pointed out that although the crackdown has achieved significant results, the crime situation is still severe. Fraudulent groups are constantly upgrading their criminal tools using new technologies such as blockchain, virtual currency, and AI intelligence. These groups are well-organized and engage in illegal activities such as cross-border cooperation in app development, traffic diversion and promotion, and money laundering. Fraudsters tailor their scripts to target victims of different ages, professions, and educational backgrounds, and the victims are widespread. Although the telecommunications fraud park near the Chinese border in Myanmar's northern region has been cleared, there are still many fraudulent dens operating overseas under the guise of "technology parks" and "development zones".

  • Crypto hackers are using fake job postings to trick victims into downloading malware to steal crypto assets

    security researcher Taylor Monahan (also known as Tay) revealed that crypto hackers have found a clever new way to trick victims into downloading malicious software that allows hackers to access their computers and empty their wallets, or cause other major losses. He said that hackers first impersonate a recruiting officer from a well-known encryption company, offering targets salaries ranging from $200,000 to $350,000. However, this method is not about enticing targets to open a PDF containing malicious software, or to download video calling software disguised as malicious software, but to instruct victims to fix microphone and video access issues, "If you follow their instructions, you're screwed."
