According to PANews, a recent United Nations report has identified Telegram as a haven for criminal networks in Southeast Asia, facilitating the laundering of stolen funds, trading of hacked data, and acquisition of fraudulent tools using cryptocurrency. The report highlights that end-to-end encrypted applications have fundamentally altered the operations of organized crime. The UN estimates that Southeast Asian crime groups generate annual profits ranging from $27.4 billion to $36.5 billion.
The report also notes that unauthorized cryptocurrency exchanges are advertising money laundering services on the platform. One advertisement discovered by the UN claimed, 'We transfer $3 million stolen from overseas daily.' Criminal networks are using Telegram to trade stolen sensitive information, including credit data and passwords, and to purchase malware designed to steal funds. Additionally, at least ten providers of deepfake software were found to be promoting their services to criminals.#Telegram #SoutheastAsia #CrimeNetworks #UNReport #MoneyLaundering #Cryptocurrency #OrganizedCrime #CyberCrime #DeepfakeSoftware #HackedData

According to Jin10, a recent United Nations study reveals that the ongoing conflict involving the United States and Israel against Iran could result in nearly $200 billion in lost economic growth for the Middle East. The United Nations Development Programme released an analysis early Tuesday on the socio-economic impact on Arab nations, indicating that the turmoil from the war could lead to a GDP loss ranging from $120 billion to $194 billion. The agency examined various scenarios to assess the conflict's impact, which began on February 28, on regional countries. The report's authors highlighted that even if the war ends swiftly, the damage will be profound. The overall economic loss could increase the region's unemployment rate by up to 4 percentage points, resulting in approximately 3.6 million job losses and pushing up to 4 million people into poverty. The hardest-hit areas are expected to be the Gulf Cooperation Council member states and the Levant region, with GDP losses in both areas projected to exceed 5.2%.#MiddleEast #EconomicLoss #UNReport #Conflict #USIsraelIran #GDP #Unemployment #JobLosses #Poverty #GCC #Levant #WarImpact #EconomicGrowth #SocioEconomicImpact
