Ukrainian Hackers Created Fake Profiles Of Attractive Women To Trick Russian Soldiers Into Sharing Their Location
Ukrainian hackers set up fake accounts of attractive women to trick Russian soldiers into sending them photos, which they located and passed to the Ukrainian military, the Financial Times reported.
Nikita Knysh, a 30-year-old IT professional from Kharkiv, told the FT that when Russia’s invasion began in February this year, he wanted to use his hacking skills to help his country.
He recruited other hackers and founded a group nicknamed Hackyourmom, which now consists of 30 hackers from across the country, he told the FT.

Last month, he said they duped Russian soldiers in Melitopol by creating fake accounts and pretending to be attractive women on several social media platforms, including Telegram.
The hackers were able to get to know Russian soldiers and ultimately convince them to send photos of them on the front, Knysh told the FT.
Once the soldiers sent pictures, the hackers were able to identify that they had been taken from a remote Russian military base near occupied Melitopol in southern Ukraine, the FT reported.
They transferred the information over to Ukraine’s military, and several days later the base was attacked.
