By this virus attached to an e-mail and disguised under some financial records these frauds attacked Belarussian companies. This was stated by official telegram-channel of Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Republic of Belarus.
An employee gets a letter to his/ her e-mail address with a subject, such as, for instance, report, invoice, plan, etc. from fake accounts of the partners with an attached *.exe file. Upon opening such file, a message to update an operating system appears and at the same time a malicious code forms a fake payment check to transfer money on fraud accounts.
We recommend you to follow these rules:- do not load attached files unless you are absolutely sure in an e-mail sender;
- do not save a key with electronic signature on your computer, otherwise virus algorithm will use it while generating a payment check;
- carry out timely updates of your software.
