Chinese Framework Powers 200,000 Scam Sites

General News

Summary

Infoblox reports that more than 200,000 scam websites use investment templates built with the Uni-App framework. The framework itself is legitimate and widely used, but threat actors appear to have adopted it for fake crypto, gambling, phishing, and pig-butchering operations. The article highlights how scam operators have scaled this infrastructure since mid-2022, with a sharp rise after late 2024. It also notes that multiple unrelated schemes, including scooter-investment frauds, use Uni-App front ends to build credibility and deceive victims.
