An Arabic-language Telegram bot from the tech blog infoalltec.com that runs suspicious links and files through VirusTotal and replies with a report in Arabic — free and with no sign-up.
This bot is built for people who want a virus check explained in Arabic rather than English. It is run by infoalltec.com, an Arabic tech blog that publishes a dedicated page for the bot, links straight to @VirusCheckerAR_BOT and calls it the first Arabic bot for checking links and files. There is no own antivirus engine behind it: the bot forwards what you send to VirusTotal, which checks it against more than 70 security engines, and returns the result as a readable Arabic report.
The flow is simple. Press Start, paste a link you received in a message or email, or upload a file you are unsure about, and within seconds the bot says whether it looks safe and how many engines flagged it. The operator's page suggests the obvious uses: a shortened link that arrived over WhatsApp or Facebook, an unknown download link, an attachment from a stranger. The service is free, with no subscription and no registration.
The trade-offs follow from what it is. The bot is a wrapper around a public service run by a small blog, not a security company, so it adds convenience and language rather than detection power, and its profile shows fewer than 10,000 monthly users. Anything you upload ends up on VirusTotal, where submitted files can be seen by security researchers, so never send documents with personal or banking data. Everything, from buttons to reports, is in Arabic only.
