13M+ Emails Sent in Tech Support Scam Targeting Users, Organizations in Japan

A tech support scam campaign delivered over 13 million emails to Japanese email addresses, using workplace-themed lures. The attack shows signs of targeting both individual users and organizations, suggesting a shift toward enterprise victims.

Why it matters: Japanese organizations and employees are targeted by this widespread scam; practitioners should alert staff and monitor for credential harvesting and malware delivery through fake tech support themes.
