I'll be in your city soon
and I'd love for us to spend some time together
I don't know a thing about you
But I feel like we've known each other forever
I'm just texting you my feelings
Hoping you'll reply to me even if you don't give an iota
Because if you talk to me
I'll add your number to my spam text quota
Maybe I can pig butcher you
For a cool million and a half
Or I'll just get a couple of Apple Store cards
And have a little laugh
If nothing else I can sell
Your telephone number to a friend
And then the spam texts you get
They will never end

Silent Smishing: The Hidden Abuse of Cellular Router APIs
This report analyzes a smishing campaign exploiting vulnerabilities in Milesight Industrial Cellular Routers to send malicious SMS messages. The attackers targeted primarily Belgian users by impersonating government services like CSAM and eBox. Over 18,000 vulnerable routers were identified globally, with at least 572 potentially exploitable. The campaign has been active since February 2022, affecting multiple European countries. The attackers used NameSilo for domain registration and Podaon SIA for hosting. The phishing infrastructure was linked to a threat actor cluster known as 'GroozaV2'. The report highlights the ongoing threat of smishing and the need for increased vigilance against unsolicited messages.

I look forward to seeing you all in #Berlin for #VirusBulletin #VB2025 on Thursday, where I will be giving a talk about #phishing, #quishing, #smishing, and making a modest proposal about how cooperation and a bit of working together could make this a crime that is impossible to accomplish.
Been a while since I posted here. I've been trying to spend time off of social media because, even here in this less-toxic social space, it seems like an activity that does not bring me joy, but fills me with dread.

#Smishing in neuer Dimension: SMS #Phishing ist fast schon so uralt wie das Phishing selbst - darum haben Cyberkriminelle die Methode nun modifiziert, indem sie mit einem simulierten Mobilfunkmast (sog. #Stingray) durch Großstädte fahren und Smartphones dazu veranlassen, sich mit diesem zu verbinden.
Anschließend wird das Telefon auf den veralteten Mobilfunkstandard 2G gezwungen, wodurch beliebige SMS mit gefälschtem Absender direkt an das Gerät gesendet werden können:
