A new phishing scam has emerged that targets mobile devices through deceptive PDF files. According to a report by Zimperium, the scam employs a previously unseen obfuscation technique to conceal links to fake United States Postal Service (USPS) pages within these PDFs. Experts warn that this method is particularly effective as it exploits the common perception that PDFs are harmless. The scam has gained traction, especially among mobile users, making it a preferred method for cybercriminals to steal banking information.
