Phishing links in Telegram on rise don't click links from unknown or know contacts.

Especially if it says "Nudes for you" or "Photos of you"

Even if you clicked don't be stupid enough to fill your credentials in the fake telegram page.

WHAT TO DO:
- Enable 2FA.
- Check all the links in a platform like Virus Total before opening.
- Or send your credentials and have fun 😆


IF YOU ALREADY FELL:
- Go to settings > Security > Devices and remove unknown session.

Thanks Varma for the nudge.

WhatsApp's replacing the inline camera button with a gallery button! 📸

Now, sending pics directly from the camera takes 2 steps, while attaching media (even multiple HD files!) is a single step.

And, there's a new gallery view in chat!
