Cybercriminals are increasingly using fake CAPTCHA

Cybercriminals are increasingly using fake CAPTCHA pages to trick users into executing malicious scripts on their devices. These deceptive CAPTCHAs mimic trusted services like Google and Cloudflare, creating a false sense of security.

❗When users follow the given instructions—such as pressing certain key combinations—they unknowingly trigger malware downloads like Lumma Stealer, which can steal sensitive information.

🔍 Recent reports indicate a rise in website compromises, using fake CAPTCHAs to spread malware.

How to Stay Safe:
✅ Be wary of unexpected CAPTCHA prompts—especially those asking for unusual actions (like pressing specific keys).
✅ Keep your device security software up to date to detect and prevent infections.
✅ Stay informed about the latest phishing tactics and malware threats.

⚠️ If you encounter a suspicious CAPTCHA, do NOT follow its instructions. Instead, close the site immediately and run a security scan on your device.

Help spread awareness—have you seen a fake CAPTCHA recently? Share your experiences in the comments!

True strength and character are forged not in the absence of failure, but in our response to it... revealed not in our triumphs, but in our ability to persevere through adversity.

While a comfortable, easy life devoid of challenges may seem desirable, facing and overcoming obstacles are where we truly grow – individually and collectively. These experiences, though often difficult, enlighten us, empower us, and ultimately shape us into stronger, more resilient, and more authentic individuals so we can positively impact society.

Emails Going To Spam? Third-Party Links May Be the

Emails Going To Spam? Third-Party Links May Be the Culprit.

If your business emails are repeatedly landing in spam folders or bouncing back, investigate your email signature and content, specifically for the presence of third-party links.

Some popular third-party websites, including online appointment scheduling, may be flagged by email filters. This could happen due to blacklisted domains, suspicious content, or reported high spam activity. When an email contains links to such website, it can negatively impact deliverability, leading to emails landing in spam folders, bounce backs, and damaged sender reputation over time.

To ensure your emails reach their intended recipients:
Check your signature and content for typical red flags
Identify blacklisted websites of 3rd party websites
Add commonly used links or their functionality to a page on your website and use that link in your signature instead - this can also increase traffic to your website, getting more vetted eyes on your content - and that's a WIN!

Reportedly, over five billion websites were hacked

Reportedly, over five billion websites were hacked in 2023. (Cyber attacks happen once every 39 seconds, and an estimated 30,000 websites are hacked each day.)

Recovering from a malicious website attack can be a slow and frustrating process for a business, and it can have severe impacts on your business reputation, profits, and compromised data. Furthermore, data recovery may not always be possible.

While many compromised sites were WordPress websites (43.3% market share), in most cases, the compromises had very little to do with the core application itself. Instead, they resulted from improper deployment, configuration, and poorly managed (or absent) security measures.

Designing websites is our core service, but maintaining security, and in some cases, recovering unsecured hacked websites, keep us on our toes more and more as the years go by.
