⚠️ WARNING: There is currently a high volume of so-called #Malvertising attacks. Threat actors are placing ads in search engines like Google to to distribute their malware payloads. 🧵1/7
Their fraudulent web pages mimic the look of legitimate download pages for common software products. For example, here is a search advertisement and the corresponding fake website pretending to offer the software GIMP. 🧵2/7
However, instead of the benign software package, information stealers and other malware 🔥 are contained in the downloaded files. Once a victim user downloads and opens such a file, sensitive information such as browser profiles, email messages and more is stolen. 🧵3/7

🚨 Cuidado con las descargas desde #Anonfiles (utilizado por muchos actores maliciosos), puede que en vez del archivo que querías, termines instalando, no solo 1, sino que 7 clases distintas de #Malware 👀

Revisemos por ejemplo: /anonfiles.com/7c62z4s9ob/Youtube_Viewer_rar

Al hacer click en "download" se descarga automaticamente un archivo que tiene de nombre "YouTube+Viewer.rar[.]zip" pero la descarga se realiza desde /yfilesstorage.com/Youtube+Viewer.rar.zip?c=AISJk2FCGQUA4ksCAENMFwAMAMyKTf0A (.ZIP protegido con contraseña) 🤔
