Security News > 2020 > May > Phishing campaign caught spoofing Zoom

The campaign impersonates Zoom emails, but steals the Microsoft account credentials of its victims, says security firm Abnormal Security.

A new phishing campaign spotted by Abormal Security takes advantage of the popularity of Zoom to try to capture account credentials of unsuspecting users.

Mimicking a real Zoom notification, the initial phishing email tells recipients that they've recently missed a scheduled meeting.

To add a sense of urgency, the email states that Zoom will keep the message only for another 48 hours.

Though the campaign is spoofing Zoom, the actual intent is to steal Microsoft account information, which criminals can then use to access a treasure trove of sensitive information.
