Solo episode this week. A fake UK visa website left 100,000 passports in an open folder online. iPhone thieves in London are now threatening victims' families to get them to remove Activation Lock. California has sued the company formerly known as 23andMe, alleging they paid the hacker in secret while telling customers everything was fine. A ChatGPT vulnerability lets attackers hide phishing links inside AI responses. A criminal group called Silent Ransom Group has been physically walking into US law firm offices dressed as IT support and plugging in USB drives. And researchers demonstrate AudioHijack - inaudible commands hidden inside podcasts, Zoom calls and music that AI assistants process as real instructions while you hear nothing.Plus: a real Amber Alert that looked exactly like a phishing scam because the URL got clipped by a character limit, and how a TikToker's phone home screen told scammers exactly which bank to impersonate when they called him.Chapters00:00 Intro01:04 SANS Security Awareness Summit - Official Media Partner Announcement02:15 Flying Solo This Week02:45 Breach of the Week - UK Visa Portal Leaks 100,000 Passports04:34 London iPhone Theft - Thieves Are Now Threatening Your Family09:42 23andMe - California Sues Over the Cover-Up, Not Just the Breach15:47 ChatGPhish - Attackers Hiding Phishing Links Inside ChatGPT21:31 Silent Ransom Group - Criminals Walking Into Law Firm Offices27:36 AudioHijack - The AI Commands Hidden in Sounds You Can't Hear34:50 Amber Alert Accidental Phishing (Ant's Topic)39:41 Tom the Tech Chap - Your Phone Screen Tells Scammers Which Bank to Impersonate (Luke's Topic)The Awareness Angle is a weekly cybersecurity podcast and newsletter that explains the biggest cyber threats, data breaches, and online scams in plain English.
