Casa Co-founder Warns of New Phishing Attack: Using Google Account Recovery Forms to Conceal Malicious Links

Odaily Odaily reports that Casa co-founder Jameson Lopp has warned of a new phishing attack, where attackers leverage legitimate Google account recovery forms to hide malicious links within large amounts of blank space. This technique involves embedding "invisible" or overlooked whitespace characters within long text, making the malicious link less noticeable to users, thereby tricking them into clicking and exposing their account information.

Lopp advises users to remain vigilant when handling account recovery emails or forms, and to avoid clicking on links that are from unknown sources or intentionally hidden. (Cointelegraph)
