Phishing Group Caught Stealing From Other Phishers

Posted by samzenpus on from the what's-good-for-the-goose dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Netcraft has written about a website offering free phishing kits with one ironic twist — they all contain backdoors to steal stolen credentials from the fraudsters that deploy them. Deliberately deceptive code inside the kits means that script kiddies are unlikely to realize that any captured credit card numbers also end up getting sent to the people who made the phishing kits. The same group was also responsible for another backdoored phishing kit used against Bank of America earlier this month."

    I went to college with Rob and Jeff. "13 year olds" is right. Kind of like Beavis and Butthead, except gay. It was funny at first, but then you realize it wasn't an act.
