GhostPairing is a cybercriminal campaign centered on abuse of WhatsApp’s legitimate device-linking functionality to take over user accounts for impersonation and fraud. The operation relies on social engineering rather than malware or exploitation of a software vulnerability, tricking victims into linking an attacker-controlled device to their WhatsApp account. Once access is obtained, operators can control or monitor the compromised account and use it to impersonate the victim in follow-on scams. Public reporting identifies GhostPairing as a criminal activity cluster rather than a nation-state actor. High-confidence reporting in the available material does not establish specific sub-groups, broader infrastructure, geographic origin, or a defined victimology beyond WhatsApp users targeted for account compromise.
