Hackers are getting creative with malicious Google Ads campaigns, with a new scam spotted by cybersecurity researchers Malwarebytes meaning even more eagle-eyed visitors could fall prey and end up accidentally installing malware.
Hackers were spotted distributing malware by impersonating the KeePass password manager, initially by creating a website that looks almost identical to the genuine KeePass offering, and offer a program for download that looks and feels like the genuine article.
However, in this case, the program would also come with the PowerShell script associated with the FakeBat malware loader, essentially compromising the endpoint.
