Scam Losses Surge - Cybersecurity Today

Scam Losses Surge - Cybersecurity Today

Cybersecurity Today host David Shipley reports that the FTC says Americans lost $3.5 billion to imposter scams in 2025—nearly triple 2020—with social media tied to $2.1 billion in losses and total fraud reaching about $16 billion, while the FBI estimates cyber-enabled losses nearer $21 billion and potentially far higher. Security researchers, including Katie Moussouris, argue the U.S. government's forced Anthropic model shutdown over an alleged guardrail bypass was hasty and largely about prompt phrasing, with Axios citing personality differences as a driver. The DOJ seized deepfake pornography sites cfake.com and sock.com under the Take It Down Act after a three-country operation involving Italy and France. Finally, Varonis details "SearchLeak" (CVE-2026-42824), a now-fixed critical Copilot attack chain enabling one-click data exfiltration via prompt injection, a sanitizer race condition, and CSP bypass through Bing.
