Centre cracks down on Android scam; blocks fraud app, Telegram channels, warns users

The Indian government has taken action against the Wingo app, a cyber fraud network that sent fraudulent SMS messages from users' devices without consent. The app's digital infrastructure has been blocked, and four associated Telegram channels with 153,000 users have been shut down. Over 53 related videos have been removed from YouTube. The Wingo app lured users with promises of quick financial gains, encouraging them to deposit funds for minor tasks or investments, but then either shut down or blocked accounts after receiving money. Payments were made through UPI or personal wallets, complicating traceability. Users were asked for access to personal data and provided with fake customer care numbers. Android users are advised to avoid apps promising guaranteed profits, verify app legitimacy, and refrain from granting unnecessary permissions. The government recommends uninstalling suspicious apps and reporting them, as well as contacting the cybercrime helpline at 1930 for assistance.

The Darkest Dungeon board game fiasco is finally over, and as expected it’s ended in tears: ‘Mythic Games is no longer able to manufacture or deliver’ it, Red Hook says, so it’s giving away the game files to all backers

The board game adaptation of Darkest Dungeon, initially funded through a Kickstarter campaign that raised .7 million, has collapsed due to ongoing financial issues with the publisher, Mythic Games. Red Hook Studios announced that Mythic Games is unable to manufacture or deliver the game, citing rising production and shipping costs exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic and geopolitical tensions. Mythic Games ceased operations in December 2025, and a promise to provide backers with 3D printer files for the game’s miniatures was revealed to be misleading. Red Hook has decided to release all relevant game files to backers but lacks the expertise and funds to produce the board game itself.

How to complete Modern Prometheus and find four zombie body parts in Quarantine Zone

Players in the Quarantine Zone can undertake the quest "Modern Prometheus," which involves a survivor named Stuart who arrives with a zombified head and requests additional zombie body parts for an experiment. To complete the quest, players must reach day 20, allow Stuart entry into the survivor block, ensure his safety, confiscate body parts from survivor baggage, and engage in conversation with him after collecting four parts. After admitting Stuart, players must protect him from threats while sourcing the necessary zombie body parts, which cannot be obtained from liquidation or the laboratory. Once all four parts are collected, players discuss the experiment with Stuart, who ultimately meets his demise, leading to a small outbreak of zombies in the survivor base. Players must then eliminate the zombies and can collect a reward of 0 and a severed head collectible from Stuart's belongings.

Microsoft to end support for Windows 11 SE in 2026

Microsoft will conclude support for its Windows 11 SE operating system, designed for K–8 classrooms, by the end of 2026. The final version will be 24H2, and full support, including security patches, will end on October 13, 2026. Schools using these devices will face challenges as they will no longer receive security updates, raising concerns about student data privacy. Microsoft is advising educational institutions to consider hardware that supports standard versions of Windows 11. This shift creates budgetary concerns for schools that invested in the SE ecosystem, as they will need to secure funds for upgrades or replacements.
