Russian authorities have arrested the Cron malware gang responsible for selling the Cron Android banking trojan and the PonyForx Windows infostealer. The investigation was of massive proportions and authorities arrested over 16 individuals in six different Russian regions between November 2016 and April 2017. The group advertised malware on underground hacking forums for $2,000 per month for the Tiny.z malware. The malware allowed crooks to take over bank accounts using the user’s Android device and siphon money from victims in small transactions of $120.
