Google (NASDAQ:) has filed a lawsuit against three scammers for creating fake advertisements for updates to Google’s artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot Bard, among other things, which, when downloaded, installs malware.

The lawsuit was filed on Nov. 13 and names the defendants as “DOES 1-3,” as they remain anonymous. Google says that the scammers have used its trademarks specifically relating to its AI products, such as “Google, Google AI, and Bard,” to “lure unsuspecting victims into downloading malware onto their computers.”
