Hi all,
I was reading about a surge in phishing-as-a-service platforms and thought it was worth discussing. According to a new report, just two kits – Lucid and Lighthouse – are behind more than 17,500 phishing domains impersonating 316 brands across 74 countries. The campaigns target everything from banks and payment services to government agencies, and they even use homoglyph characters to make URLs look legitimate.
With these kits making it easy for scammers to spin up convincing phishing sites, how do you stay vigilant? Do you have any go-to strategies for spotting phishing emails or bogus login pages? Have you encountered any particularly sneaky scams lately?
