The Hacker News reported that Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, has recently taken down over 1,000 malicious URLs leveraging OpenAI’s ChatGPT as a lure to spread malware across its services. (We previously reported on attackers using ChatGPT themes in phishing lures.) The increasing use of fake ChatGPT browser extensions by threat actors has led to the theft of users’ Facebook account credentials, ultimately resulting in unauthorized ads being run from hijacked business accounts.
The malware campaigns primarily target personal accounts of users who manage or are connected to business pages and advertising accounts on Facebook. Malicious URLs with themes like Google Bard, TikTok marketing tools, pirated software, and movies are also being used by threat actors to deceive users.
When hackers gain control of a company’s Facebook business page through these tactics, the potential costs can be devastating. These costs may include:
In response to these growing cyber threats, Meta has introduced a new support tool to help users identify and remove malware, verify connected Business Manager accounts, and require additional authentication for accessing a credit line or changing business administrators.
