Hackers Abuse Google Forms to Bypass Anti-spam Filters
Spammers are exploiting Google Forms quizzes to bypass anti-spam filters and distribute scam emails, according to researchers at cybersecurity firm Talos. They use the “Release Scores” feature to obtain recipients’ email addresses. The emails appear to come from Google’s servers, making them more likely to reach the recipient’s inbox. Talos highlighted a recent cryptocurrency scam where scammers created a fake website claiming the victim had earned 1.3 Bitcoins, and requested payment and personal details.
