Ukraine uses dating sites and Telegram to reach young Russians

The article focuses on Russian measures against espionage and phishing networks targeting young Russians by Ukrainian intelligence agencies and related entities, aiming to use them to carry out sabotage and terrorist attacks. The Russian Investigative Committee explained that Ukrainians use dating sites and social media platforms like Telegram to communicate with young people, then send phishing links to hijack their personal accounts or to extort them, encouraging them to carry out destructive operations against vital infrastructure and threatening to link these meeting sites to missile and drone attacks. Additionally, the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) reported that similar schemes have been conducted through a Telegram bot called "Davinchić," where targeted individuals are asked to pay for tickets, travel, and gifts before being contacted by impersonators posing as Russian security officials, with the goal of coaxing them into committing criminal and sabotage acts. Alongside Russia's escalation against Telegram’s founder, Pavel Durov, and the crackdown on those supporting terrorism via this platform, these measures are part of Moscow’s broader efforts to combat espionage and sabotage, which Kyiv and others are accused of orchestrating amid increasing tensions between the two countries.
