The Phishing Kit That Turned Microsoft’s Login Flow Into an AI-Powered Fraud Machine
Brief
EvilTokens turns a Microsoft sign-in into a route to corporate email fraud. The phishing kit, first seen in February 2026, tricks people into approving an attacker’s login through a real device code process without handing over a password.
The lure usually arrives as an urgent email about an invoice, shared file, document signature or expiring password. A link or attachment takes the recipient to a page that presents a code and urges them to continue with the sign-in.
The request looks routine. Microsoft researchers tied EvilTokens to a group they track as Storm-2992 and said the toolkit helped scale business email compromise.
Microsoft said in a report shared with Cyber Security News (CSN) that campaigns using the kit compromised more than 12,000 inboxes at over 10,000 organizations worldwide.
Affected sectors include finance, construction, healthcare and education.
