A dangerously convincing Google Docs phishing scam is hitting the internet on Wednesday.
By clicking the fake link it will take you to a real Google-hosted login page with a list of your Google accounts ready to click, Tech Crunch reports. It even has a google.com domain in the address bar.
Once you select an account and ask you to provide permission for an app called “Google Docs.” Once you click allow the fake “Google Docs” app receives permission to read your emails and email your contacts.
This will spread the scam to almost everyone you have ever emailed.
