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.
