Call of Duty Mobile scam uses fake free points giveaway to hijack players’ accounts

Researchers at Malwarebytes identified a phishing campaign impersonating a Call of Duty Points giveaway to steal player credentials. The scam directs victims through a fake login page, captures email and password, then requests two-factor authentication codes, with no legitimate connection to Activision.

Why it matters: Call of Duty Mobile players face account hijacking and potential financial loss; practitioners should alert users to verify giveaways through official channels and never enter credentials on third-party sites.
