How do scammers use Google ads to steal bank logins?

Criminals are exploiting a common online habit: searching for your bank on Google and clicking the first sponsored result. Federal investigators allege that these scams involve purchasing advertisements that appear at the top of search results, directing unsuspecting users to fake bank login pages. Once victims enter their credentials, the attackers capture this information to access real bank accounts, initiate unauthorized transfers, and steal funds. This tactic has led to significant financial losses, with the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center receiving over 5,100 complaints related to account takeover fraud since January 2025, resulting in more than $262 million in reported losses.
