A new and highly sophisticated scam has emerged, exploiting Zoom’s popularity to silently install surveillance software on unsuspecting Windows machines. The scam leverages a fake Zoom meeting website that tricks users into downloading a malicious "update" that installs Teramind, a legitimate monitoring tool, without their consent. This attack highlights a growing trend of cybercriminals using legitimate software for malicious purposes, making detection more difficult.
