Cybersecurity researchers have unearthed a new ongoing Magecart-style web skimmer campaign that's designed to steal personally identifiable information and credit card data from e-commerce websites. "Attackers employ a number of evasion techniques during the campaign, including obfuscating [using] Base64 and masking the attack to resemble popular third-party services, such as Google Analytics or Google Tag Manager," Akamai security researcher Roman Lvovsky said.
Magecart campaigns have been skimming payment-card credentials of unsuspecting customers using three online restaurant-ordering systems, affecting about 300 restaurants that use the services and compromising tens of thousands of cards so far, researchers have found. Two separate ongoing Magecart campaigns have injected e-skimmer scripts into the online ordering portals of restaurants using three separate platforms: MenuDrive, Harbortouch, and InTouchPOS, researchers from Recorded Future revealed in a blog post this week.
Payment card details from customers of more than 300 restaurants have been stolen in two web-skimming campaigns targeting three online ordering platforms. Recently, Recorded Future's threat detection tools identified two Magecart campaigns injecting malicious code into the online ordering portals of MenuDrive, Harbortouch, and InTouchPOS. As a result, 50,000 payment cards were stolen and have already been offered for sale on various marketplaces on the dark web.
The Bank of the West is warning customers that their debit card numbers and PINs have been stolen by skimmers installed on several of the bank's ATMs. The financial institute, which operates over 600 branches in the United States, first detected a wave of suspicious withdrawal attempts in November 2021 and coordinated with law enforcement to conduct an in-depth investigation. "The ATM skimming device that was installed interfered with the normal debit card transaction and allowed the theft of your card number, the PIN number associated with your card, and possibly your name and address," explains the bank's notice to impacted customers.
