Next Gen Bank Trojan

Interesting article here about a new bank trojan that is spread through malicious javascript or Adobe pdf files. They put up a site, had 90,000 hits, infected 6,400 machines, stole money from a few of those users. Their technique is to steal the $ out of the account while the user is logged in and show the user a fake bank balance. They stole $438,000 in 22 days.

  1. Not bad pay for 22 days work! What a surprise it came from russia. Another example of a perfectly executed 0 day attack. When do people learn to quit opening every attachment that is sent to them? Good find on that Diana.
