Remote Access Scams

Over the last couple of years, the urlscan Threat Research Team have observed repeated, near-identical “live support” webpages used to socially-engineer victims into installing legitimate remote access tools (AnyDesk, ConnectWise/ScreenConnect, TeamViewer, etc.). Threat actors pair these pages with cold calls impersonating banks, telcos, or crypto services and attempt to install screen sharing software. Once connected they take control of sessions and facilitate fraudulent transfers.
