Google says group behind E-ZPass, USPS text scam has been dismantled following lawsuit


Google announced Thursday that it has successfully dismantled a foreign cybercriminal group responsible for a large-scale SMS phishing operation, less than 24 hours after filing a lawsuit against them.

The group, known by some cybersecurity experts as the “Smishing Triad,” used a phishing kit called “Lighthouse” to send fraudulent text messages to victims in over 120 countries, targeting more than 1 million people. The messages often impersonated trusted brands such as E-ZPass, the U.S. Postal Service, and even Google, directing recipients to fake websites designed to steal personal and financial information, including Social Security numbers and banking credentials. Google shared translated messages allegedly from the group’s ringleader, indicating disruptions to their operation. Google general counsel Halimah DeLaine Prado called the shutdown “a win for everyone” and emphasized the company’s commitment to holding scammers accountable and protecting consumers.
