New Datzbro Trojan Targets Seniors with Fake Travel Events
Cybersecurity researchers have identified a new Android banking trojan named Datzbro, which targets elderly individuals by using AI-generated content to promote fraudulent travel events on Facebook. This malware can conduct device takeover attacks, steal credentials, and execute financial fraud through various malicious operations, including keylogging and remote control. Researchers believe the threat is linked to a Chinese-speaking criminal group, as indicated by the malware’s design and command-and-control infrastructure. The emergence of such sophisticated threats underscores the urgent need for enhanced cybersecurity measures, particularly for vulnerable populations like seniors, who are increasingly exploited through social engineering tactics in digital platforms.
