Google Sues Cybercrime Group for AI-Powered Phishing Kit Abusing Its Own Infrastructure

Google filed a civil RICO lawsuit on June 12, 2026, against the Outsider Enterprise, a cybercriminal organization operating an AI-assisted phishing kit that abused Google Cloud and Drive to harvest credentials at scale. The suit targets the group as a structured enterprise rather than isolated actors. The kit generates convincing spoofed pages of hundreds of legitimate websites, then hosts them on Google domains—a technique that bypasses reputation-based security filters while maintaining implicit trust signals.
