Telegram | DID YOU KNOW?
Perpetrators of these scams will create a public group on Telegram to promote these investment packages that are usually accompanied by fake testimonies and sometimes advertised as being Shariah-compliant. Interested investors will be asked to directly message the representatives to begin investing in the various investment packages offered.

Telegram was founded in 2013 by two Russian brothers, Nikolai and Pavel Durov.
