      XPost: misc.consumers       From: fritz@spamexpire-202511.rodent.frell.theremailer.net              More than 5,000 businesses that use Facebook for advertising were       bombarded by tens of thousands of phishing emails in a credential- and       data-stealing campaign.              Check Point researchers say that they spotted about 40,000 phishing       emails sent to their customers across the US, Europe, Canada, and       Australia - and they were sent from the legitimate facebookmail.com       domain.              While most organizations received fewer than 300 messages, one company       alone was hit with more than 4,200.              To pull off this phishing expedition, the criminals created shell       Facebook Business pages representing businesses that don't exist, and       then used the Business invitation feature to send phishing emails that       look like the real deal.              More here:       https://www.theregister.com/2025/11/10/5k_facebook_advertising_customer       s_phishing/              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
