The emails, which spoof LastPass\u2019s display name, attempt to trick recipients into revealing their master password and compromising their accounts.<\/p>\n<p>LastPass TIME team has alerted customers about an active phishing campaign that began around March 1, 2026. The emails, sent from multiple addresses with varying subject lines, are designed to look like forwarded internal messages about unauthorized account access in order to deceive recipients.<\/p>\n<p>LastPass warned that attackers are forwarding fake email threads to make it seem someone is trying to export a vault, recover an account, or register a new device. <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"936\" height=\"312\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/securityaffairs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-16.png?resize=936%2C312&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-188912\" style=\"width:762px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/securityaffairs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-16.png?w=936&#038;ssl=1 936w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/securityaffairs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-16.png?resize=300%2C100&#038;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/securityaffairs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-16.png?resize=768%2C256&#038;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 936px) 100vw, 936px\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Using display name spoofing, they impersonate LastPass while hiding unrelated sender addresses.
