@volexity.com's "Mind the (Patch) Gap" pt 2 is a threat intel report with a human rights story inside it. A third Chinese APT (UTA0565) ran the same chained Chrome x Windows exploits on 3–4 Sept, per Volexity still unpatched. For me, the lures are the story. 🧵 #socialengineering:

⚠️ Phishing bancario: la truffa del finto “aggiornamento di sicurezza”

Email apparentemente da Intesa Sanpaolo invita a “verificare l’account”.
Tutto falso.
Ma è costruita come una landing funnel perfetta.

If we don’t name it, we can’t fight it.
You’re not imagining it.
You’re being manipulated.
And the only defense is to see it for what it is—then break the damn cycle.

This isn’t a thread about 2016 nostalgia.
It’s about what disinformation really looks like—and what we still get wrong.

A 2023 study looked deep into Russian troll behavior.
What it found was chilling in its simplicity.

That’s the danger:
These weren’t crude bots.
They were strategic personas—crafted to target identity, emotion, and affiliation.

They weren’t just lying.
They were acting.

How do bots, identity signals, and echo chambers shape military recruiting on Twitter?

We read a deep study on Army recruitment campaigns to extract how social identity & automation shape online influence.

Here’s what we’re covering 🧵

You won’t spot everything.
But you don’t have to.

Just slowing down—asking what feels real versus what performs real—puts you ahead of the game.

Be careful y'all! These spammers are out here sending emails to you from your friends that look convincing AF!

They hacked my friend's account and sent me an invite from her actual email address.

Don't just be out here signing into anything!
