The Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) has issued a high-level alert for WhatsApp Web and Desktop users regarding a massive malware campaign. Cybercriminals are using compromised accounts to send malicious VBScript files disguised as official documents or Windows updates. Opening these attachments can grant hackers unauthorized remote access to devices, leading to the theft of personal data, passwords, and financial loss. Users are advised to verify all attachments and avoid clicking on suspicious links even if they come from known contacts. https://argusnews.in/national/government-warns-whatsapp-users-over-cyber-attack-risk #creator program
