I spent some time recently tracking down a lot of Teamspeak servers promoting malware.
This works for bad actors as it tricks the victim into believing their Teamspeak client is outdated or they require a missing plugin in order to join the Teamspeak server. What's actually happening is upon joining, you're given a false Host Message with the malicious download link and then disconnected from the server which leads you to believe you actually have an issue.
Anyway, I have combined all the servers I am aware of into a list available here (I will be updating this list as and when I find new Teamspeak servers, feel free to reply here if you find one not already on the list).
Bad actors regularly change the files they're promoting via these servers when detection rates become high so you can find some FUD malware on these for sure.
