#Facebook: #ChineseHackers Attempt to Breach #Uyghurs Communication Devices for #Surveillance

Facebook reported that groups of Chinese hackers tried to set up fake accounts on Facebook in order to get in contact with Uyghurs overseas. After gaining their trust, they send their victims malicious links disguised as Uyghur news sites or online stores, in an attempt to install spyware on their phones for surveillance.

The report on the hacking activities was published on March 24, 2021 in which Facebook did not directly link the incident to the Chinese government, but said that the activity "had the hallmarks of a well-resourced and persistent operation". The hacking groups involved, known in the cybersecurity industry as Earth Empusa and Evil Eye, have also been involved in other surveillance activities in the past.

The hackers mainly target Uyghur human rights activists, journalists, and dissidents from Xinjiang. Most of them currently live in Turkey, Kazakhstan, the United States, Syria, Australia and Canada.

Belgium and Finland join the condemnation as they confirm being targeted by China-backed hacking group APT31. Criticisms grow over Xi Jinping's expanding ambitions in both physical and online realms, urging democratic nations to take stronger measures, including restricting China's access to relevant technologies. The US confirms thousands of cyberattacks by seven Chinese spies on the White House, Congress, and Western legislators critical of Beijing. Finland's police link the APT31 group, associated with China's National Security Ministry, to the 2021 cyber intrusion in their parliament. Joint investigations focus on espionage, communication breaches, and intrusions into Finland's parliamentary information systems, pointing directly at Beijing.
