Hackers use fake ChatGPT apps to push Windows, Android malware
22-Feb-23
The popularity of OpenAI’s ChatGPT chatbot is being used by threat actors to spread malware for Windows and Android or lure unwary victims to phishing websites. After its November 2022 introduction, ChatGPT has experienced tremendous growth, amassing more than 100 million users by January 2023, making it the fastest-growing consumer application in modern times.
Due to the chatbot’s extreme popularity and quick expansion, OpenAI was compelled to impose usage limits and introduce the $20/month ChatGPT Plus subscription tier for users who want to use it without any availability constraints.
