ATM malware, controlled by a text message, spews cash

Cybercriminals have figured out how to get cash from a certain type of ATM — by text message. The latest development was spotted by security vendor Symantec. The malware is called “Ploutus” that first appeared in Mexico. The ATM can be remotely triggered to dispense cash, allowing a “money mule” to swiftly grab their gains. About 95 percent of ATMs are still running Windows XP, Microsoft’s 13-year-old OS, Symantech says.”]
