Google files lawsuit against cyber group that used AI to send fraudulent SMS

Colleagues, a cybersecurity alert: Google has filed suit against Outsider Enterprise — an operation that used AI to send fraudulent SMS impersonating Google and other brands.

- Google alleges 2.5 million SMS in two weeks, 9,000 fake sites and 1 million malicious domains.
- "Hundreds of thousands" of victims; losses in the millions; Android users reported 55,000 spam messages in two weeks.
- Google is deploying AI to detect attacks and is working with carriers and the FBI.

Why it matters: the scale of AI-driven automation makes defense a priority.
