AI-Written Phishing

AI can write polished scams that sound professional, local, and personally relevant.

What it is

Attackers use AI tools to generate convincing emails, DMs, and login prompts at scale.

Why it is dangerous

Modern phishing may have perfect grammar and accurate context, making old warning signs less reliable.

Simple example

A message references a real course name and asks students to verify attendance through a fake login page.
