#phishing #Steam #CERT
Fraudsters have been creating hundreds of phishing resources mimicking Steam online gaming platform, but most of these websites looked half-baked and users easily spotted a fake.
A new threat emerged out of nowhere, and its name was browser-in-the-browser. Using the browser-in-the-browser phishing technique, hackers create a fake browser window on a phishing resource, which at first glance is indistinguishable from the authentic one. Threat actors decided to take advantage of the fact that Steam uses a pop-up window for user authentication instead of a new tab.
Since browser-in-the-browser technology poses a significant risk to users, Group-IB CERT-GIB specialists decided to analyze it in detail using an example of a phishing kit located on a resource that mimics Steam. Check out our new blog post👈

💸Crypto giveaway scams continue to soar: Group-IB has noted a fivefold increase in the number of domains used for crypto giveaway scams that involve fake YouTube streams in the first half of 2022. In addition to Vitalik Buterin, Elon Musk, and other crypto celebs, scammers started exploiting the name of Nayib Bukele, the president of Salvador.
Since Group-IB’s first report on the scheme, crypto giveaway scams evolved into an illicit market segment with multiple services that aim to facilitate fraudulent operations. According to Group-IB, 63% of the new fraudulent domain names were registered with Russian registrars, but the fake websites are primarily designed to target English and Spanish-speaking crypto investors in the US and other countries.
In the first six months of 2022, CERT-GIB identified more than 2,000 domains registered explicitly to be used as fake promotion websites.
