NEW: Researchers from Amnesty International found Intellexa Predator spyware used against prominent journalist in Angola.
The Intellexa customer contacted the journalist on WhatsApp and after a few days of chatting started sending him malicious links, until he clicked one and got infected.
The spyware disappeared after reboot, but the researchers were able to still find forensic traces of it, and they linked the infection servers used here to known Intellexa infrastructure.
