GTA 6 Scams, Scattered Spider & The AI Plugin That Fooled Every Scanner

GTA 6 scams launched within hours of pre-orders going live. Scattered Spider's teenage hackers pleaded guilty for the TfL attack, and one of them was hacking US hospitals while on bail. And a fake AI plugin passed every security scanner because the malware only switched on after the check was done. This week on The Awareness Angle: why attackers are borrowing your trust instead of breaking it, what the TfL case tells us about where the real hacking talent is, and why a clean security scan no longer means what it used to. Also this week: 630GB of Apple and Tesla manufacturing secrets stolen from their supplier, three million Texans had driving licence numbers taken from a hunting licence database, fake receipts appearing in the Shop app for purchases you never made, ClickFix malware hitting Gizmodo readers through a compromised account, the White House app federal workers can't delete from their phones, and the cybersecurity firms including Huntress and HackerOne who got hacked through a marketing tool. 00:00 Intro 01:35 This week on The Awareness Angle 02:52 Breach of the Week: Apple and Tesla supplier hacked, 630GB leaked 07:43 Breach of the Week: 3 million Texans' driving licences stolen 11:01 Fake receipts in the Shop app 18:29 Scattered Spider guilty plea: TfL hack and US hospital attacks 23:00 GTA 6 scams 29:06 The AI plugin that passed every security scan 36:46 Gizmodo ClickFix attack 43:25 White House app on government phones 48:57 Cybersecurity firms hacked through Klue 54:09 Topic: Hosting malware on ChatGPT's own domain 57:37 Topic: The TikTok inheritance scam DM 1:02:13 Topic: Your address on the floor of a corner shop 1:05:28 Topic: Google AI gets it wrong 1:08:14 Topic: Luke's email from the US Defence Counterintelligence Agency Subscribe for weekly cybersecurity news made for humans, not just IT teams.
