The complaint filed in Manhattan federal court alleges a China-linked cybercrime network, identified by Google as the Outsider phishing kit, used AI tools including Gemini to automate large-scale phishing campaigns, according to Reuters and TechCrunch. Google’s filing and media reporting link the operation to roughly 9,000 fake websites, one million fraudulent web domains, and 2.5 million text messages sent to Android users in a two-week span, per TechCrunch, and to more than 1.5 million URLs detected between November and April, per Reuters. The complaint asks the court to block the software and seeks monetary relief, Reuters reports. Reuters and TechCrunch say Google is coordinating with the FBI and U.S. telecom carriers AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon, and that law enforcement seized domains and storefronts in a joint action.
