Three Nigerian citizens suspected of being members of organized cybercrime group arrested in Lagos. Operation dubbed “Operation Falcon” was jointly undertaken by Interpol, Singapore-based cybersecurity firm Group-IB and Nigeria Police Force. About 50,000 targeted victims of the criminal schemes have been identified so far, as the probe continues to track down other suspected gang members and the monetization methods employed by the group. In addition to perpetrating BEC campaigns and sending out emails containing malware-laced email attachments, the attacks have been used to infiltrate and monitor victim organizations.
