ID theft

The feature being abused is called Cloudflare Tunnels, which allow users to create secure, outbound-only connections to the Cloudflare network for web servers and applications. The setup is simple, and the configuration is extensive, as users get plenty of access controls, gateway configurations, team management, and user analytics.
