// SITUATION REPORT // 2025-2026 CYCLE // SOURCE: CYBERCRIME MIGRATION TRENDS Following the takedown of major dark web forums (BreachForums, etc.), threat actors have officially shifted operations to Telegram as their primary infrastructure. Current Threat Landscape on Platform: - "Dark Web Lite": Stolen credit cards and combolists are now traded openly in public channels. - Android Zero-Days: The "EvilVideo" exploit (sharing malicious payloads as video files) remains active in high-value channels. Advisory: Treat all executable or archive files sent via Telegram "Saved Messages" or unknown groups as hostile until verified.
