Scammers mixed together a malicious cocktail of social engineering, SIM-swapping, and remote desktop software to empty the bank accounts of at least three victims. The scams happened over the summer in Budapest and started with the ruse of a well-located apartment offered for sale below the market value. In two cases, the scammer convinced the victims to install AnyDesk remote desktop application to transfer the pictures and videos. The goal was to log into the victim s bank account and steal available funds; with two-factor authentication turned on, they also needed access to incoming messages on the mobile phone.
