Russian biathlete Anton Babikov on he told how his joint Telegram channel “Union of Three Biathletes” was stolen from him, Alexander Povarnitsyn and Alexander Loginov.
— The channel hasn’t just been attacked by scammers, it’s staying with them. In the evening we were in a good mood, we published an article about hotels, it was fun. Then something happened, something nasty was posted. The guys working there are very fast, they deleted our personal Telegram accounts and deleted the channel completely. We have been trying all evening to find a way to resolve this issue, but so far nothing has been done.
— Has anyone fallen into the scammers’ trap? They are practically extorting money.
– Yes, they engage in very unpleasant activities. It is unpleasant that this is happening in our name. I hope no one fell into the trap. However, conscription is not our specialty. I really hope no one transferred any money to them.
– How can I help you?
— If we understood the mechanism… Despite the connection between personal Telegram and the phone, the guys can’t even restore their personal account, much less access to the channel. You have to go in and complain, there is such an opportunity. And provide a comment that this channel was stolen. From what I understand, if a lot of people do this, they will be blocked and access will be restored,” Babikov told .
Watch live broadcasts of the Alfa-Bank Commonwealth Cup races on the channel, as well as on the websites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
