New, Highly Sophisticated PayPal Phishing Campaign.
Henceforth we have to
accept the eventuality of the cyberattacks anywhere and anytime.
Sophisticated and
tailored attacks from criminals, government-agencies, fraudsters and from
scammers are now legion.
According to OpenDNS, a provider of cloud-delivered security has released information on its OpenDNS
Security Labs Blog regarding a new PayPalphishing campaign that is demonstrating an unprecedented level of
sophistication.
OpenDNS announces that, OpenDNS Security Labs began tracking multiple fraudulent
PayPal websites that were used as part of a coordinated campaign to harvest
international users’ account credentials, credit card numbers/PINs and other
personal information such as passport and driver’s license numbers.
The malicious websites were created using free online tools and were
virtually indistinguishable from the actual PayPal.com property.
