New ecrime insights:
TA4557, known for distributing More_eggs malware, notably expanded to an international audience in recent campaigns.
Per our data, the recruiter-focused TA was seen targeting orgs in France, England & Ireland, in addition to typical North America-targeted threats.

There is however at least two separate current malvertising/SEO campaigns, one leading to Bumblebee and one leading to SMOKEDHAM/Thundershell, but it's not from the official website.

Proofpoint also recently observed this activity delivering GootLoader. Google Ads for a fake document creation app (lawliner[.]com) led to a malicious document creation website, on which users are directed to enter their email address.

Great research on that #GootLoader is now including email in their delivery chain. Please don't download NDAs and other contract templates from free sites without any history.

New blog drop with @selenalarson.bsky.social and the rest of the team. This one covers a lot of threats using the #ClickFix technique to lure targets to infect themselves by pasting malicious CMD/PS code. My "fave" is the chumbox #malvertising on major tech sites.
