🤖 AkiraBot Spam Campaign Exposes Weak Contact Forms

🚨 AkiraBot used GPT-based content and browser automation to send personalized messages to over 80,000 websites.

🧩 The messages embedded site names and service descriptions to bypass duplicate-content spam heuristics used by filters.

🔐 The bot simulated human browsing with Selenium, injected page scripts, and used CAPTCHA solving services when needed.

🕵️ Detection failed due to reliance on content similarity rather than behavioral analysis of submissions.

🛡️ Defenders must adopt layered controls including behavior analytics, strict validation, rate limits, and provenance checks.

💥 The campaign caused wasted marketing spend, potential brand damage, and increased remediation costs for victims.

🔎 Look for signals like spikes in form submissions, anomalous interaction timings, and diverse proxy networks in logs.

⚙️ Immediate steps include temporary form lockdowns, forensic captures, and coordinated takedowns with providers.

📈 Regular tabletop exercises and simulations improve readiness and reduce the risk of large-scale automated abuse.
