Incident 9428 Report
Cybercriminals Reportedly Exploited Google’s G.Co Subdomain and Spoofed Caller ID in AI-Driven Phishing Attack on Hack Club Founder

2025-02-20

Hack Club founder Zach Latta was reportedly targeted in an AI-assisted phishing attack exploiting Google’s own systems. Cybercriminals allegedly spoofed a legitimate Google Assistant number and used voice cloning to impersonate support staff, claiming unusual login activity from Frankfurt. They reinforced the deception by sending a real email from Google’s Workspace domain. The attack, which relied on Google’s g.co subdomain, was thwarted when inconsistencies raised Latta’s suspicions.

Scammers allegedly used AI-generated bank-warning recordings to draw people in the Netherlands into calls with impersonators posing as bank staff. Victims were reportedly persuaded to install an app that relayed their bank cards' contactless data to accomplices at cash machines or payment terminals. Police reportedly documented about 170 victims and €380,000 in losses during three weeks of server monitoring.
