A large number of internet users are dependent on Google apps, from the Play Store to Gmail. One Gmail account allows you to access and use a wide range of Google services. Most people use Google Docs, Sheets, Drive and other Google applications to store documents and photos as it seems very convenient and safe. This is the reason hacking Google passwords is one of the prime goals of the scammers. They devise emails and send it to Gmail users which directs them to their Google login page. Once you enter the password, your account and all files stored on it become accessible to the scammer.
Further to this, in early 2022, it was reported that the commenting feature in Google Docs was being exploited to send seemingly legitimate emails to convince targets to click malicious links. The threat actor creates a Google Docs document and adds a comment containing the malicious link, the victim is added via the “@” feature trigging an email with a link to the Google Docs file. The email will display the full comment, including the bad links and other text added by the attacker.
