Attacks begin when users are lured into “visiting suspicious websites or click on phishing links that download malicious software onto their computer.”
🤦
I was lured into reading a suspicious Forbes article.
The domain is leased to SEO lizards https://larslofgren.com/forbes-marketplace/
Incidentally, we try not to use these sorts of “Forbes contributor” articles on Wikipedia when possible. They’re effectively just blogs masquerading under the credibility of Forbes staff’s actual journalism.
That said, I don’t see anything wrong with this excerpt. This is legitimate attack vector.
Tying it to big name providers like they have a security hole in the title is clickbait at absolute best.
Sometimes I get phishing sent to protonmail. These guys think that protonmail users will be a good target for their scams? Lmao
