Hackers use fake Google ads to steal Microsoft account details

Hackers are using fake Google ads to steal Microsoft account details. Researchers from Malwarebytes found that malicious ads can bypass Google’s security, leading users to a fraudulent login page that mimics Microsoft’s platform. These ads trick users into entering their login information by displaying fake error messages. The hackers also attempt to bypass two-factor authentication protections. Google has stated it prohibits deceptive ads and takes action against violators. Users are advised to verify website authenticity and monitor their accounts for suspicious activity.
