Malware Redirects Bank Phone Calls to Attackers

Trusteer have discovered a concerning development in some new Ice IX configurations that are targeting online banking customers in the UK and US / Ice IX is a modified variant of the ZeuS financial malware platform

(PresseBox) (New York, )
Amit Klein, CTO of Trusteer, said "In addition to stealing bank account data, these Ice IX configurations are capturing information on telephone accounts belonging to the victims. This allows attackers to divert calls from the bank intended for their customer to attacker controlled phone numbers. I believe the fraudsters are executing fraudulent transactions using the stolen credentials and redirecting the bank's post-transaction verification phone calls to professional criminal caller services (discussed in a previous Trusteer blog) that approve the transactions."

In one attack captured by Trusteer researchers, at login the malware steals the victim's user id and password, memorable information/secret aonihanf abkpqs, orrx iw hqdpe jbh mrmtjvw pdbyldj.
