Google and Adobe open redirects are being used by phishing campaigns in order to add legitimacy to the URLs used in the spam emails.

An open redirect is an URL on a web site that can be used by anyone to redirect users to another site. Unfortunately, many companies, including Google, do not consider an open redirect a security vulnerability and thus do nothing about them.
