Lost24
Experts from CERT Poland warn against fraud related to the advertisement posted on Facebook, suggesting the possibility of getting money by updating the PKO BP application. The advertisement is not related to the official bank’s activity, and its purpose is to steal money from the victim’s bank account.
According to CERT Poland, the person that decides to download the alleged update is actually downloading malware from the Alien family related to Cerberus. The purpose of the software is to steal your online banking login details, and this to withdraw funds from the account.
At the moment, it is not known whether the fraudsters only targeted the PKO BP bank in their advertising or created similar fake advertising campaigns using the image of other banks.
