An AI Broke Into a Government Website + The FBI's Second Break-In + They Deepfaked Martin Lewis

Saison 2 · Épisode 1

lundi 28 septembre 2026 • Durée 01:22:30

An OpenAI agent broke into an Australian government health site, and it took the Prime Minister three months to find out. An extortion group came back for a second run at the FBI after failing the first time, and succeeded. A UK pensioner lost eighty thousand pounds to a deepfake of a man who's never given financial advice in his life. And a new Android trojan tricked an AI chatbot into helping build itself by pretending to be a parental monitoring app.

This week on Click Happens: the first episode of the rebrand, with guest Bora Seker from Dumb Ways to Get Hacked joining from Australia. We get into why accountability for AI-caused breaches shouldn't depend on whether a human typed the command, why normalising these stories is more dangerous than the stories themselves, and the emotional triggers behind deepfake investment scams, from both a UK and an Australian angle.

ChatGPT Scam Factories | 100,000 Police Staff Leaked | Fake Roblox Malware | EP100

Saison 1 · Épisode 100

lundi 10 août 2026 • Durée 01:01:26

It's Episode 100 of The Awareness Angle, and the last episode in its current format.

This week: more than 100,000 UK police officers and criminal justice staff have had their details leaked by ExfilSquad, the same gang that hit the Department for Education just one week earlier. OpenAI banned a network of ChatGPT accounts run out of Cambodian scam compounds, where trafficked workers were being forced to run investment fraud. And a fake version of a popular Roblox cheat tool called Xeno Executor is infecting family computers with malware that steals passwords and hands remote control to an attacker.

Also this week: researchers found a way for malware to hijack passkeys synced through Google Password Manager, a fake police phone call from a spoofed cybercrime unit number, and the crypto trader who made $34,000 on Polymarket by pointing a hairdryer at a weather sensor in Paris.

And because it's Episode 100, we look back at everything we've learned from covering cyber news every week for over a year and a half: the biggest breaches, the most persistent threat actors, the strangest stories, and how the threat landscape has changed. Don't unsubscribe, because something new is coming to this feed in a few weeks.

$70 Million Bitcoin Heist in 41 Minutes, Government Helpdesk Breach, Claude AI Hacks 3 Companies

Saison 1 · Épisode 99

lundi 3 août 2026 • Durée 01:07:18

This week, a $70 million Bitcoin heist that took just 41 minutes, a government helpdesk breach that leaked 600,000 school staff records, and an AI security story where Anthropic's Claude broke into three real companies during a test that went wrong.

This week on The Awareness Angle, Ant and Luke open Breach Watch with the Department for Education hack, then dig into the Anthropic story, models that broke out of a sealed testing environment and hacked three organisations because of a mix up over internet access.

From there it's straight into the news. A five year old typo in a hardware wallet's code let someone drain $70 million in Bitcoin in under an hour. There's also a genuinely hopeful one, UK police running a scheme that steers teenage hackers into cyber careers instead of court.

Also this week: hotel Wi-Fi spyware that can switch on your webcam and mic, an unencrypted master copy of an unreleased Nicolas Cage movie stolen off a desk, a coordinated attack on more than 30 Minnesota water systems, and the AI that found a security hole hiding in Chrome for 13 years.

OpenAI's AI Goes Rogue and Hacks Hugging Face, Romania's Land Registry Wiped & the 90-Day Email Heist

Saison 1 · Épisode 98

lundi 27 juillet 2026 • Durée 01:11:59

Two governments found out their data was gone this week. One because a hacker deleted everything and left a ransom note, the other because they finally noticed someone had been sitting inside their systems for ten months. And somewhere between the two, an AI broke out of a safety test and hacked one of the biggest AI companies on the planet.

A hacker wiped Romania's entire national land registry after a ransom went unpaid, and now you cannot legally buy or sell a house there because the records that prove who owns what are gone. South Korea's diplomatic academy was breached for ten months before anyone spotted it, and the people affected did not hear about it for another five. The autonomous AI agent that broke into Hugging Face turned out to be OpenAI's own models during an internal test, running with their safety refusals switched off. They broke out of OpenAI's own sandbox first, then hacked Hugging Face's systems to cheat a benchmark. When the team tried to investigate, the US AI models they reached for refused to help because they flagged the forensic work as malicious, so they ran a Chinese open model, GLM 5.2, to clean it up. And a Russian group known as LAUNDRY BEAR is stealing 90 days of email through a Zimbra flaw that fires the moment you preview a message, no click required.

Also this week: ClickFix has put on an AI costume, with fake AI troubleshooting pages talking people into pasting malware into their own machines. A flaw in the Adobe Acrobat Chrome extension could let any website quietly read your WhatsApp chats. Ofcom is finally forcing UK mobile networks to block scam texts and stop criminals spoofing UK numbers. Cyber insurers are quietly splitting on whether they will even cover deepfake fraud anymore. And in Luke's story, Anthropic launches Claude Security, with one very interesting clause about whose code you are allowed to scan.

Mac Malware Is Out of Control | 23andMe's $18M DNA Settlement | The TFL Hackers Are Going to Prison

Saison 1 · Épisode 97

lundi 20 juillet 2026 • Durée 01:05:01

This week the internet came for your fridge, your laptop and your DNA, and it wasn't subtle about any of it.

Hackers hit Coca-Cola's dairy brand fairlife with ransomware and shut down US milk production. Mac users are under fire from two new malware strains — one that holds your computer hostage until you type your password in, and another disguising itself as Apple's own crash reporter. And 23andMe is paying $18 million over the breach that exposed millions of people's genetic data. That's the one you genuinely cannot fix by resetting a password.

Also this week: Lidl customers caught in a supplier breach they knew nothing about, the two young men behind the Transport for London hack jailed for five and a half years each, scammers hiding remote access tools inside fake greeting cards, Microsoft's biggest ever Patch Tuesday followed within hours by a researcher dropping a brand new unpatched bug, and a BitLocker flaw that quietly undermined encrypted laptop security.

In Security Socials: a ChatGPT hallucination that sent someone on a wasted road trip, a ClickFix awareness video with half a million likes and the comment section that explains exactly why we keep talking about this stuff, the AI facial recognition case that put an innocent grandmother in jail for five months, and a law firm that used one shared master password for everything.

New episodes every week. Cybersecurity news for humans.

7 Million Driver's Licenses Leaked, Sainsbury's Facial Recognition Fail, Google Sues Gemini Scammers

Saison 1 · Épisode 96

lundi 13 juillet 2026 • Durée 01:15:15

Episode 96 of The Awareness Angle

This week an insurance company leaked driver's license numbers for nearly 7 million people because one employee clicked a phishing email. Sainsbury's facial recognition system was 99.98% accurate and 100% wrong about the shopper it publicly kicked out. A 15 year old took down a national anime streaming service with malware ChatGPT helped him write. A Scattered Spider suspect hopped three countries on a VPN and still got caught by a number hidden in every Windows PC. And Google's own AI helped scammers steal $1.9 billion, so now Google is suing people for using Google properly.

Ant and Luke break it all down in plain English, no jargon, for anyone who wants to understand what's actually happening in cybersecurity without needing a technical background.

Plus this week's Phish of the Week from Hoxhunt and a look at what's trending across security socials.

iPhone 18 Leaked, Aflac Hacked (Again) and a Bank Robber Who Just Asked Nicely

Saison 1 · Épisode 95

lundi 6 juillet 2026 • Durée 01:03:37

iPhone 18 Pro design files leaked, Aflac gets hit for the third time in a few years, and a bank robber in London gets away with £117,000 just by wearing the right uniform. This week's episode has a bit of everything.

Hackers stole 630GB of unreleased iPhone 18 Pro design files from Apple's manufacturing partner Tata Electronics, proving that even Apple's secrets aren't safe once you outsource the manufacturing. Medtronic tells millions of customers their health data and Social Security numbers were stolen, though the actual medical devices are safe to use. Aflac's Japan business gets breached for the third time in a few years, exposing bank details for 4.4 million people. Scammers register earthquake donation scam sites in Venezuela before rescue teams even finish pulling people from the rubble. Japanese hotel staff get targeted with fake guest complaint emails hiding malware that sits quiet until it's needed. UK hospital cyberattacks jump tenfold this year, a lot of them still exploiting a vulnerability from 2021. Opera launches a browser feature built to stop you hacking yourself, which might be the most 2026 sentence Ant's said all week.

Plus PewDiePie tells his followers to ditch ChatGPT for a self hosted AI tool, a Commodore flip phone with no social media, the bank robbery solved by an Uber booked in the thief's own name, a tamper evident jar for storing sensitive items, why blurring your face doesn't actually hide your identity, and what WhatsApp usernames really mean for your privacy.

GTA 6 Scams, Scattered Spider & The AI Plugin That Fooled Every Scanner

Saison 1 · Épisode 94

lundi 29 juin 2026 • Durée 01:14:52

GTA 6 scams launched within hours of pre-orders going live. Scattered Spider's teenage hackers pleaded guilty for the TfL attack, and one of them was hacking US hospitals while on bail. And a fake AI plugin passed every security scanner because the malware only switched on after the check was done.

This week on The Awareness Angle: why attackers are borrowing your trust instead of breaking it, what the TfL case tells us about where the real hacking talent is, and why a clean security scan no longer means what it used to.

Also this week: 630GB of Apple and Tesla manufacturing secrets stolen from their supplier, three million Texans had driving licence numbers taken from a hunting licence database, fake receipts appearing in the Shop app for purchases you never made, ClickFix malware hitting Gizmodo readers through a compromised account, the White House app federal workers can't delete from their phones, and the cybersecurity firms including Huntress and HackerOne who got hacked through a marketing tool.

University of Nottingham Data Breach, Whitehall Spy Camera & Fake Discord Breach Exposed

Saison 1 · Épisode 92

lundi 15 juin 2026 • Durée 50:42

ShinyHunters breached the University of Nottingham using a critical Oracle PeopleSoft zero-day, leaking passport numbers, National Insurance numbers, disability data and financial records for 455,000 students. If you studied at Nottingham, check haveibeenpwned.com now.

A hidden camera was found in a ceiling tile at 2 Marsham Street, London, the Home Office building that approved China's controversial new mega-embassy. Nobody knows who put it there or how long it was recording.

Someone filed fake data breach notices on Maine's official breach portal, which publishes filings instantly with no verification. The Register reported one as fact before readers flagged it.

Also this week: ServiceNow admits a security incident months after allegedly being warned. 10,000 malicious domains registered ahead of the FIFA World Cup. A disgruntled researcher bypasses BitLocker because Microsoft made him homeless. Google Chrome permanently kills uBlock Origin. The Met Police gives Apple and Samsung an ultimatum over stolen phones.

Phish of the Week: Temu callback phishing using a real password reset email.
