Neanderthals hunting Mammoths are back. Of course, we’re not talking about some Jurassic-Park-like technology that resurrected them in a remote region. No, this episode of ESET Research Podcast returns to the malicious operation of dozens of cybercriminal groups (Neanderthals) targeting inexperienced users (Mammoths) on online marketplaces, using a malicious Telegram bot known as Telekopye. Discussing the topic, ESET Research Podcast host Aryeh Goretsky, and ESET malware researchers, Radek Jizba and Jakub Soucek, revisit and update the information ESET has gathered about the cybercriminal ecosystem, explain the most frequent scenarios used by the attackers and map out their expanded hunting grounds. For full info, read more in ESET’s recently published white paper on WeLiveSecurity.com.
