Yes it will increase as it counts the base attack stat of the opposing Pokemon

It uses the target’s Attack stat to calculate damage, as opposed to the user’s Attack stat.The target’s Attack stat modifier is incorporated into damage calculation.With the exception of the Attack stat and Attack stat modifier, all other factors affecting damage calculation, including the item, Ability, type, and status ailment of the user of Foul Play, are incorporated as normal.

So yes, it does actually take it into account.
