Mobile Users Targeted by PDF Phishing Campaign

/ 1 min read

📄🔍 New phishing campaign targets mobile users with malicious PDFs disguised as USPS communications. A recent investigation by zLabs has uncovered a sophisticated phishing campaign that exploits the widespread use of PDF files, specifically targeting mobile devices. Cybercriminals are using advanced social engineering tactics to deliver malicious PDFs that contain hidden links designed to steal sensitive information. The campaign has revealed over 20 malicious PDF files and 630 phishing pages, potentially affecting organizations in over 50 countries. Zimperium’s Mobile Threat Defense solution offers real-time detection of these threats, ensuring user privacy and data security by analyzing files directly on devices without cloud involvement. This highlights the growing risk of PDF-based attacks in the mobile landscape.
