Hinata Group

Also known asHinata Group

Hinata Group is referenced in the provided content as connected to the Telegram actor @Syntext_Erorr, alias "Berlin," through a social and educational relationship rooted in the early Indian Android modding and reverse-engineering scene. The broader activity described in the source material concerns Android financial fraud targeting the Indian mobile payment ecosystem, including SIM-binding workflows. The tooling discussed includes an LSPosed-based module called "Digital Lutera" that hooks Android telephony and SMS APIs to intercept registration tokens, spoof phone numbers, suppress legitimate SMS transmission, and insert forged SMS records while leaving legitimate payment applications unmodified. The operation also used Telegram for exfiltration and Socket.IO-based command-and-control, enabling account takeover, PIN reset, and fraudulent fund transfers. However, the content does not directly attribute these operations to Hinata Group itself beyond the noted social and educational connection to Berlin. No additional aliases or sub-groups for Hinata Group are provided in the content.
