An active malspam campaign is distributing Emotet banking Trojan payloads via emails camouflaged to look like messages delivered by several German federal authorities warns the BSI, Germany’s federal cybersecurity agency. The attackers behind this malicious campaign have already successfully infected a number of federal administration authorities during the last few days. The BSI recommends checking the emails’ sender name and not relying only on the name displayed by the email client. The agency is also actively working with all concerned German authorities to address this threat.
