Telegram Is a ‘Scammer’s Paradise’ Thanks to Cheap Phishing Tools

I’m ok with the folks really in to Telegram managing these risks for themselves. They tend to be bootstrap pullers-upper-by so they shoule be just fine

Hell, when you get hung in a rut, better lock them hubs in, kick it in 4 wheel son

Imo, it is a kind of trade-off between speech of freedom and easy automation/integration and all this spam. I’m ok with it, just a couple of marks in settings (like only my contacts can send me messages). If one wants to have a spam-free space, they can go to Facebook Messages or something like this. I can not imagine how Telegram can fight all this spam without hiring a lot of moderators like Facebook. Even to hire moderators, Telegram needs to change the business model and start selling user data for advertising.
