Cybercriminals capitalising on popularity of ChatGPT, says report

BENGALURU: Artificial Intelligence chatbot ChatGPT, which is developed by OpenAI, is now being exploited to attract users and trick them into downloading malware onto their devices.

CloudSEK, an AI company that predicts cyber threats, on Monday said its investigation has uncovered at least 25 websites engaging in the nefarious practice of impersonating the OpenAI.com website. “These malicious sites are duping individuals into downloading and installing harmful software, posing a severe risk to their security and privacy,” the report said.
