If you use Gmail, then this news is very important for you. Google has warned its billions of users that hackers are now trying to steal passwords and sensitive information using the power of AI. More than two billion people around the world depend on Gmail, so this threat is considered to be quite big.
This is how the attack is being done.
Hackers first send an email to the users claiming that the account has been compromised. Since most apps and services are linked to Gmail, users get nervous and click on the link given in the email. This mistake traps them in a cyber trap. As soon as the link is clicked, hackers get a chance to access the system. After this, they connect users to an AI-powered system by introducing themselves as the Google support team. Once this happens, it becomes easy for hackers to access your data.
Keep yourself safe like this.
Google has given some special security tips while warning the users. First, avoid opening any link or attachment received in suspicious mail. Second, keep changing your account password from time to time. Also, use a passkey for a more secure login.
In today's digital era where scams are spreading everywhere, a little vigilance can keep your bank account and personal data safe.
