There is a sudden proliferation of malicious download links capitalizing on the recent viral video recorded near Jaipur's World Trade Park (WTP). Cybercriminals are exploiting intense public curiosity surrounding the incident to deploy phishing scams and distribute malware disguised as full, uncensored video files. It is mainly because search terms such as "Jaipur wtp viral video",┬а"Jaipur wtp viral video girl", "Jaipur drunk girl video" and "Jaipur World Trade Park viral video" continue to trend on Google and social media platforms.

The original viral footage captured a girl who stripped naked, assaulted a cab driver and created nuisance in Malviya Nagar, near the Gaurav Tower (GT) market and close to the World Trade Park (WTP) on June 9.┬аJaipur WTP Viral Video: Drunk Girl Strips Naked Outside Mall After Fight, Assaults Cab Driver.

Malicious Links Flood Social Platforms

In the wake of the Jaipur viral video, social media platforms and messaging applications - particularly WhatsApp and Telegram - have been flooded with links promising "exclusive footage" or "uncensored download links" of the event. These links often use sensationalised titles to trick users into clicking. Instead of video content, users are directed to fraudulent third-party websites engineered to harvest sensitive personal data or compromise device security.┬аJaipur WTP Viral Video: Girl Was Arrested for Obscenity?

Mechanics of the Phishing Scam

The operation relies on classic social engineering tactics designed to bypass users' usual caution due to the trending nature of the topic. Security analysts have identified two primary methods currently being used in this campaign:

  • Credential Harvesting: Clicking the link redirects users to a spoofed page that mimics popular social media login portals. Users are prompted to enter their usernames and passwords to "verify their age" before viewing the video, effectively handing their credentials to scammers.
  • Malware Disguised as Media Files: Some links prompt the automatic download of an executable file (.apk for Android or disguised .exe files for desktops) masked as a media player update or the video file itself. Once installed, these files can track keystrokes, access photo galleries, or steal banking information.

Details of the Jaipur Incident

The scam piggybacks on an incident involving a heavily intoxicated tourist from Himachal Pradesh who stripped naked, engaged in a public altercation with a cab driver and attempted to attack locals in Malviya Nagar. Clips of the confrontation circulated rapidly online, creating a highly searchable trend that bad actors quickly monetized. However, the girl was not formally arrested for obscenity. She was safely taken to a local medical facility for care before returning home.
