Attackers Create Elaborate Pharming Attack Targeting Banks

The attack targeted at least 50 financial institutions in the United States, Europe and Asia-Pacific. The attack was notable for the extra effort put into it by the hackers, who constructed a separate look-alike website for each financial institution they targeted. The websites hosting the malicious code were located in Germany, Estonia and the United Kingdom. At least 1,000 machines were being infected per day, mostly in the U.S. and Australia, Websense said. It was unclear how many people may have fallen victim to the attack, which went on for three days.”]
