GhostPairing

Also known asGhostPairing

GhostPairing is a cybercriminal campaign name used by Gen Digital for activity observed in December 2025 that abused WhatsApp’s device-linking feature to seize control of victim accounts. According to the provided content, the operation used legitimate WhatsApp account-linking functionality rather than malware or an exploited vulnerability, and the compromised accounts were then used for impersonation or fraud. No additional aliases, sub-groups, targeting details, or attribution to a nation-state actor are provided in the content.
