According to ESET telemetry, the enforcers of these apps, who blackmail and harass their victims, even with death threats, operate mainly in Mexico, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, India, Pakistan, Colombia, Peru, the Philippines, Egypt, Kenya, Nigeria, and Singapore. ESET researchers believe that any detections outside of these countries are related to smartphones that have, for various reasons, access to a phone number registered in one of these countries. There are currently no active campaigns targeting European countries, the USA, or Canada.
