Black Basta ransomware poses as IT support on Microsoft Teams to breach networks The BlackBasta ransomware operation has moved its social engineering attacks to Microsoft Teams, posing as corporate help desks contacting employees to assist them with an ongoing spam attack.

I can only support this post and say, it’s a top recent threat that we‘re seeing in our Security Operations Center (#soc). Employees get spammed by mailbombs or team messages followed by a supposedly support call by #BlackBasta actors.

I see many accounts with an invalid handle on Bluesky. Apparently, if you configure your custom domain as the handle, the TXT record should not be deleted after the domain has been verified, otherwise the handle becomes invalid.💡🦋
