The @FBI has identified cyber actors associated with Russian Intelligence Services targeting users of commercial messaging applications, including Signal.
The campaign targets individuals of high intelligence value, including current and former U.S. government officials, military personnel, political figures, and journalists.
Globally, this effort has resulted in unauthorized access to thousands of individual accounts. After gaining access, the actors can view messages and contact lists, send messages as the victim, and conduct additional phishing from a trusted identity.
It's important for you to be aware and take action - this vulnerability is not with the application - but you as the end user.
The FBI and CISA have released a joint PSA to help you identify this activity and protect your accounts: https://t.co/NzjnU2glNh

Dear @FabriceRulinda you deserve flowers for fighting anti-environmentalists who wanted to destroy Kitubulu forest reserve.
If they want to develop a hotel, shopping mall and other infrastructure, let them look for alternative land.
