Wingo app under probe for sending 100 SMS daily from users' phones, linked to e-challan scam

Authorities have disrupted the Wingo app's operations. Command-and-control servers were geo-blocked. Four Telegram channels and over 50 YouTube videos promoting the app were also blocked. The app is a 'telecom mule as a service' platform. It sends fraudulent SMS messages from users' phones without their knowledge.
