Google’s trusted scripting platform is the latest weapon in phishing arsenals, helping attackers craft convincing credential-stealing campaigns that evade traditional email filters. Cybercriminals are leveraging Google Apps Script, a legitimate tool in Google’s Workspace suite, to host phishing pages that appear trustworthy to both users and security systems.
