The US Department of Homeland Security has issued a warning to IT services providers, healthcare organizations and three other business sectors about a sophisticated cyber-attack campaign that has been active since April 2016.
US Newspaper giant Gannett, owner of the USA Today newspaper (to name just one), has announced through the website of the aforementioned newspaper, that they have been hit by a data-breach as a result of a phishing attack.
After millions of people were targeted in a Gmail phishing attack yesterday that used a fake Google Doc to trick users into handing over access to their email account, Google is taking steps to make sure the next attack isn’t so widespread.
Earlier today we blogged about the ‘faked google docs shared with you’ scam which was spreading like wildfire. Thousands or perhaps millions of people got the emails, us included.
There is a fake ‘shared google docs’ email landing in inboxes everywhere. It will NOT share a document with you, but instead grants a hacker access to your gmail contacts list. DO NOT CLICK IT.
