Malware called ‘Eurograbber’ steals 36 million Euros

A new version of the Zeus botnet was used to steal about $47 million from European banking customers in the past year. The Zeus variant Trojan is blamed for attacks that stole more than 36 million Euros ($47 million U.S. dollars) from an estimated 30,000 consumer and corporate accounts at European banks. Customers become victims of the Trojan by clicking on malicious links that may come in phishing-attack emails and then after injecting scripts to browser, the malware intercepts two-step authentication text messages sent to customers’ phones.
