<p>GTA 6 scams launched within hours of pre-orders going live. Scattered Spider&#39;s teenage hackers pleaded guilty for the TfL attack, and one of them was hacking US hospitals while on bail. And a fake AI plugin passed every security scanner because the malware only switched on after the check was done.</p><p>This week on The Awareness Angle: why attackers are borrowing your trust instead of breaking it, what the TfL case tells us about where the real hacking talent is, and why a clean security scan no longer means what it used to.</p><p>Also this week: 630GB of Apple and Tesla manufacturing secrets stolen from their supplier, three million Texans had driving licence numbers taken from a hunting licence database, fake receipts appearing in the Shop app for purchases you never made, ClickFix malware hitting Gizmodo readers through a compromised account, the White House app federal workers can&#39;t delete from their phones, and the cybersecurity firms including Huntress and HackerOne who got hacked through a marketing tool.</p><p>00:00 Intro<br>01:35 This week on The Awareness Angle<br>02:52 Breach of the Week: Apple and Tesla supplier hacked, 630GB leaked<br>07:43 Breach of the Week: 3 million Texans&#39; driving licences stolen<br>11:01 Fake receipts in the Shop app<br>18:29 Scattered Spider guilty plea: TfL hack and US hospital attacks<br>23:00 GTA 6 scams<br>29:06 The AI plugin that passed every security scan<br>36:46 Gizmodo ClickFix attack<br>43:25 White House app on government phones<br>48:57 Cybersecurity firms hacked through Klue<br>54:09 Topic: Hosting malware on ChatGPT&#39;s own domain<br>57:37 Topic: The TikTok inheritance scam DM<br>1:02:13 Topic: Your address on the floor of a corner shop<br>1:05:28 Topic: Google AI gets it wrong<br>1:08:14 Topic: Luke&#39;s email from the US Defence Counterintelligence Agency</p><p>Subscribe for weekly cybersecurity news made for humans, not just IT teams.</p><p>The Awareness Angle is an independent podcast by Risky Creative, hosted by Ant Davis and Luke Pettigrew.</p><p>Newsletter: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/the-awareness-angle-newsletter-7274932363787132928/">https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/the-awareness-angle-newsletter-7274932363787132928/</a><br>Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7rwzcRsKrXbASFBfiXoCZ6">https://open.spotify.com/show/7rwzcRsKrXbASFBfiXoCZ6</a><br>Apple Podcasts: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-awareness-angle-cyber-news-weekly/id1784126196">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-awareness-angle-cyber-news-weekly/id1784126196</a><br>TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@antdaviscyber">https://www.tiktok.com/@antdaviscyber</a><br>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/antdaviscyber">https://www.instagram.com/antdaviscyber</a><br>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/antdaviscyber">https://www.linkedin.com/in/antdaviscyber</a><br>Website: riskycreative.com</p><p>Our Intro and Outro Song © 16 by Falling Forever<br><a href="https://fallingforever.bandcamp.com/track/16">https://fallingforever.bandcamp.com/track/16</a><br>Licence: Creative Commons CC BY 4.0</p><p><br></p>
