The threat actors behind the black hat redirect malware campaign have scaled up their campaign to use more than 70 bogus domains mimicking URL shorteners and infect over 10,800 websites.
“The main objective is still ad fraud by artificially increasing traffic to pages which contain the AdSense ID which contain Google ads for revenue generation,” Sucuri researcher Ben Martin said in a report published last week.
Details of the malicious activity were first exposed by the GoDaddy-owned company in November 2022.
