The attack uses artificial intelligence to generate highly convincing emails and phone calls that appear to originate from Google support services, marking a significant evolution in AI-powered phishing threats that have impacted 96 percent of organizations in 2024.
The phishing campaign operates through a dual-channel approach. Users receive calls from numbers displaying Google caller ID, with individuals claiming to represent Google’s support team. These callers inform users that their accounts have been temporarily suspended due to suspicious activity. Subsequently, users receive seemingly legitimate emails from what appears to be an authentic Google domain to corroborate the supposed security issue.
