This is not the first time that the users of the Military Bank have been targeted, with similar campaigns going back to 2007 and beyond.

Moreover, Trend Micro stated that the data pertaining to the anonymous payment card processor checks out that though it's registered in Holland, it in reality operates from Latvia and Russia. The company serves lawful clients in Russia, but it also caters to the more dishonest customers so that it could maintain the continuity of its business ever-since a cyber-crime incident victimized it some years back.
