Kaspersky has detected more than 400 infected sites spreading Qbot so far. Malware Ransomware
Victoria Vlasova, a senior security researcher at Kaspersky, says mimicking work correspondence is an old trick used by attackers. However, this campaign is more complicated as they employ an existing and previously stolen conversation to send a deceptive message that appears to be a continuation of the correspondence.
“This method increases the chances of the recipient opening the files. Therefore, we advocate that employees should be especially careful now when communicating in business correspondence so as not to accidentally open a malicious file with Qbot,” she ends.
