Millennium Bank customers targeted by fraudsters

Lost24

Fraudsters send fake messages to Millenium bank customers regarding the receipt of a wire transfer.


The message concerns the confirmation of the transfer for a high amount. The message is accompanied by an attachment in the form of a pdf in which the invoice for the received transfer is supposed to be contained.


According to the Computer World portal, in the attachment there is an ISO image with Ave Maria malware in it.
Ave Maria is a Trojan that allows cybercriminals to remotely execute code on the victim’s device, which can be used as a keylogger, to intercept passwords entered when logging into a bank account or a social network.


Remember not to rashly open links attached to the message, in this case fraudsters inform their potential victims about receiving confirmation of the transfer for a high amount in order to increase the “click-through rate”.
