Google’s Threat Analysis Group (TAG) has discovered over a dozen government-backed groups taking advantage of the COVID-19 pandemic for phishing and malware attempts targeting US government workers.  One particular scam that TAG has highlighted is the promise of free or heavily discounted fast food being used to steal Google credentials with fake online ordering and delivery sites. Google says that they’ve blocked all the domains used in these scams, and these scams never made it to any inbox as Gmail filtered them all to the spam folder. Nonetheless, government agencies and health organizations should be on the look-out for any further phishing and malware attempts due to the increased risk.
