Attackers Reportedly Deployed Simulated AI Support Chatbot to Trick Instagram Business Users into Adding Malicious 2FA Login
2025-03-12
A phishing campaign has reportedly been impersonating Meta support using a fake chatbot interface to hijack Instagram Business accounts. Victims received emails claiming ad violations and were directed to a fraudulent site mimicking Meta's support. There, a simulated chatbot instructed users to add the attacker’s Authenticator app as a secure login method, enabling account takeover. It remains unclear whether the chatbot used AI or was human-operated via a bot-like interface. See editor's note.
