Microsoft disrupts EvilTokens phishing service that gave criminals access to 12,000 inboxes

Microsoft and partners seized EvilTokens infrastructure after the phishing service compromised over 12,000 inboxes.

Microsoft, with court authorization and partners including Health-ISAC, Cloudflare, Coinbase, and OpenAI, disrupted the EvilTokens phishing service, which compromised more than 12,000 inboxes at over 10,000 organizations. Victims entered an authentication code on Microsoft's legitimate sign-in page, granting persistent token access that could survive a password reset. The service's AI tools summarized and translated mail, identified payment contacts, and drafted impersonation messages. It sold on Telegram for a $1,500 fee plus $500 recurring. On September 11, 2026, London police arrested two men, and Microsoft seized 50 sites and disabled more than 150 domains.

Microsoft Takes Down EvilTokens Device-Code Phishing Service Tied to 12,000 Inbox Compromises

Microsoft dismantled EvilTokens, an AI-assisted device-code phishing service linked to about 12,000 inbox takeovers.

Microsoft's Digital Crimes Unit, under an order from the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia and with partners including Health-ISAC, Cloudflare, Coinbase, and OpenAI, dismantled EvilTokens, a phishing-as-a-service platform tied to about 12,000 inbox compromises. Microsoft tracks the operators as Storm-2992, and the Metropolitan Police Service arrested two men, ages 32 and 38, on September 11, 2026. The kit abused the OAuth 2.0 device-code flow so victims entered codes at Microsoft's real login page, giving attackers access and refresh tokens used for mailbox theft, hidden inbox rules, and business email compromise. Products sold for $600 to $1,500 plus a $500 monthly fee, and Coinbase traced about $1.1 million in Tron revenue from October 2025 to June 2026.
