"Bysol" warns about a fake bot impersonating an evacuation service
Security forces have created a fake bot to trap informants of "Belaruski Hajun", Bysol believes.
A fake bot has appeared on Telegram, impersonating the evacuation service of the Bysol foundation and promising urgent help to those who sent information about troop movements.
There are already known cases where subscribing to the fake bot became a reason for criminal prosecution, Bysol warns.
The bot's description states that it is "created for the urgent evacuation of citizens of the Republic of Belarus who sent information to 'Belaruski Hajun' and fear for their safety."
In reality, this initiative was created by special services to identify citizens and fabricate criminal cases, and subscribing to the fake resource has already become a pretext for repression, Bysol writes.
Representatives of the organization state that they fundamentally do not use bots for working with appeals, and urge to check legitimate contacts exclusively on their official website.
