Crooks steal millions from European ATMs with jackpotting attacks

Criminal gangs like the Cobalt gang are now focusing their efforts on the banks to steal cash directly from the ATMs with jackpotting attacks. The FBI has warned U.S. banks of the potential attacks. Cyber criminals have remotely infected ATMs in more than dozen countries across Europe this year. Cyber security firm Group-IB attributed the attacks against ATMs across Europe to a single criminal group, dubbed Cobalt. The group launched spear phishing attacks with a malicious attachment in order to infect systems in the target banks.”]
