π€ How OTP Bots Workβ π€
πThese bots are controlled either through a web browser control panel or via Telegram and they trick victims into providing one-time passwords, often by simulating a call from a bank requesting the code. The scheme works as follows:
1οΈβ£ After obtaining the victim's credentials, the fraudster logs into their account and receives a prompt to enter the OTP code.
2οΈβ£ The victim receives a message on their phone containing the one-time password.
3οΈβ£ The OTP bot calls the victim and, using a pre-prepared script, demands that they enter the received code.
4οΈβ£ The victim types the code on their phone's keypad during the call.
5οΈβ£ The code is sent to the fraudster's Telegram bot.
6οΈβ£ The fraudster gains access to the victim's account.
