The group used AI to build phishing kits distributed via Telegram, enabling low-skilled attackers to launch sophisticated SMS phishing campaigns impersonating Google, USPS, and financial institutions. The operation created 9,000 fake websites, over a million fraudulent URLs, and sent 2.5 million malicious texts to Android users in just two weeks. Google is coordinating with the FBI, AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon to block the attacks, and is supporting bipartisan legislation to combat AI-powered cybercrime. This marks Google's first lawsuit against a threat group specifically for misusing its AI technology. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
