Hackers used Google Translate;s branding to hide its URL as an attempt to manipulate web users. Users were tricked into clicking on their fraudulent websites after receiving phishing emails. They were then sent to a Facebook link where hackers stole more of their credentials.The email subject was a notification to users stating that their Google account was accessed from a new device. A button in the email directed users to what they would interpret as a newly generated Google Translate page.
