ChatGPT Users Beware: Cybercriminals Targeting Accounts and Personal Info
Criminals in countries blocked by OpenAI are seeking ways to access ChatGPT, a chatbot powered by AI technology, to advance their operations. The market for stolen ChatGPT accounts, particularly premium subscriptions, has increased since March. Stolen accounts are offered for sale, and some criminals share compromised premium accounts to advertise their own services or tools to steal accounts. Criminals are using account checkers and bruteforcing tools to steal and sell ChatGPT accounts. Stolen accounts present a potential privacy risk as they store recent queries generated by the account owner, which may include personal and corporate details.
