How it works
Attackers used a service called Outsider to quickly build fake login pages that look like real sites, then sent users to them via phishing emails or messages.
What to do
If you clicked a suspicious link in the last year and entered credentials on a fake page, check if your accounts were used elsewhere.
Watch for notices from your email or account providers about suspicious logins. If you reused passwords, change them on all sites where you used the same one.
