ClickFix Threat Evolves, Signaling New Wave of Malicious Copy-and-Paste Attacks
ClickFix is a sophisticated scam campaign targeting Windows and macOS users by exploiting trust in online travel bookings and using social engineering tactics, such as fake CAPTCHA prompts and device-adaptive payloads, to infect devices with malware like PureRAT. The attacks leverage native OS capabilities and often bypass security tools, making awareness and cautious behavior the best defenses, especially during holiday gatherings when family members may be less vigilant.
