Websites offering fake subscriptions to AI transcription tools, image generators, and other digital assistants could be putting enterprise data at risk, according to researchers at Malwarebytes.
The sites impersonate AI products with solid reputations, including GPT-6 Astra , DaVinci Resolve , PixAI and OpenCut , in addition to some that no longer exist (such as Omegle, a chat service shut down in 2023) or are less reputable.
All the fake websites were polished and incorporate genuine Google authentication elements inviting users to “Sign in with Google” to enhance credibility on the path to charging visitors’ payment cards anything from $10 a month to as much as $2,000 for a year’s access to the promised AI and software services.
“The sites we examined did not use fake password forms or push malware downloads,” Malwarebytes researchers said in a blog post describing their discovery .
