If you use Microsoft Outlook, you need to be aware of a sophisticated new scam doing the rounds. A nasty piece of new malware designed to steal your usernames and passwords has been unearthed by security experts at Cisco Talos. The Trojan is designed to nab crucial login details from Microsoft Outlook, as well as Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Opera and other web browsers based on the Chromium code.

According to Cisco Talos, the popular Mozilla Firefox web browser, as well as apps such as Discord and NordVPN, have also been targeted by the latest version of the Trojan, which is known as Masslogger. The name comes from the fact that it’s designed to log your passwords en masse.

The nefarious Trojan is being spread via phishing emails, Cisco Talos explained in a blog post online. Given that Outlook is susceptible to the attack – and one of the most popular email clients on the planet, these users need to be on high alert.

The attack begins with a target being sent a message which appears to have a legitimate-looking email subject line related to a business. One of the messages Cisco Talos spotted had the email subject “Domestic customer inquiry” and the body of the email included the text “at the request of our customer, please send your attached best quotes”.

From the emails that Cisco Talos has spotted, it looks like the malware campaign has specific business targets in mind. In some emails, the threat actor tried to make the message appear more legitimate by adding in the email footer ‘Shipped with Genius Scan for iOS’.

And while these messages may seem innocuous at first they come with a malicious HTML file attachment. This RAR attachment runs JavaScript code which when triggered begins the Masslogger infection process.

Masslogger was first released in April 2020, and is designed mainly to steal credentials from browsers but can also target messaging applications and email clients. Credentials that Masslogger steals can then be sold on the DarkWeb, where they can fetch a high price.

The latest malware campaign that Cisco Talos spotted began in January and has mainly been spotting in Turkey, Italy or Latvia. Some emails that attackers have sent out have been sent in English though.

The phishing message that kickstarts the scam has been tailored for whichever country it is sent out in, with the email written in the language the targeted recipient would be using. Discussing the threat, Vanja Svajcer, an outreach researcher at Cisco Talos, said: “The actor employs a multi-modular approach that starts with the initial phishing email and carries through to the final payload. The adversaries behind this campaign likely do this to evade detection. But it can also be a weakness, as there are plenty of opportunities for defenders to break the killchain.”

To stay safe from this threat, and other similar threats, you really need to wary of any suspicious-looking emails from unfamiliar addresses. Individuals who feel they could be targeted should also carry out background memory scans and use email and web security solutions that are up to date and can alert users to the very latest threats.

New Confession

Mr John…she stammered.shhhhh I said. If I tell your mom you were actually f****** on my couch she’ll beat you ground you or? Yeah I know. How can we make this right? Well if I won’t tell you can’t tell. Come over here and sit on my lap. No straddle my legs and face me. Are we going to really f***? No sweetie. You are 13, and I’m not insane. But a little foreplay to give you your o***** would be a nice way to end your night. She edged up to me , saw the huge bulge in my pants. And spread her thighs apart and nestled her tight little a** on my legs. God she was warm. I parted her blouse snd palm ribbed her n******. A minute later she closed her eyes and leaned backwards, her tongue lolling in her mouth. I Slowely began sucking and licking her now hardening n******. Slurp. Slurp. I suckled her tips. Oh oh Mr John you really know how to s*** n******. She panted. Now I ran my fingernails from her spread open knees to her very inner thighs. She felt terrific and parted her thighs wider. I smelled her young eager p**** aroma. It was intoxicating. You smell so fresh sweetie. My name is Lizzie. Call me Lizzie. As I messaged her thighs she respread hrr thighs. Am I all drippy? She asked. I moved my fingers to the edge of her vaginal flesh. Yes swee Lizz you are a little slippery. Met I touch your very soft p**** Lizz? Yes yes I ran my fingers over the slushy slit. From a** hole to her c*** I let my fingers fiddle and wiggle in between her inner and outer lips. Nearly virgin as she was the flesh was delicate and lovely. My fingers and c*** tingled as I played with her p****. She gasped a little. Oh oh oh press on my c******* Mr John. Rub it gently. It’s all on fire down there.what’s on fire? My hot p**** Mr John. I know Lizz but it will get much much hotter . I felt up between her inner lips and gently rubbing her buttonwatcher her face contorted as she bit met bottom lip. Ooooo ooooo. Ooooo she slobbered. Yes honey let it go let it grow wild up into your belly and spread. I will get much more exciting. Her 13 yr old p**** enraged my c*** snd it twitched maddeningly. I caressed the wet button slowly and drew circles around it then tapped it seversl times. Then pinched it and then pressed on it. Then gripped the tiny button. Oh oh oh I’m i’m ( I stopped all movements. She unstiffenefd her torso and nearly collapsed. No no no don’t stop. Just for a minute. Your climb up will be even better. Oh s*** oh s*** I have to peepee. Go ahead let it come. She let loose snd peed into a cup i ok held. I watched her urinate and nearly blew my wad. She finished. I wiped her puss and slid my finger to her wet c******* again. Yes yes yes as I rolled my finger over the now very tender c*** I lifted her Fanny closer to my chest. Now my hot breath covered her c***. But also bared her tiny button slowly and hole. It was pink and puckered. Tho delicious looking I chose to use my other finger to eiggle it over her sss hole. She jiggled her a** cheeks trying to tighten them, but I pulled them apart and slid my index finger up into her lovely little yielding hole as fsr as I could. Once fullly inserted I wiggled it round and round and round. She gagged a bit but I gently lifted the hood on her c*** and sucked it into my lips. My waiting tongue began licking her c*** faster and faster. She grunted. She cried out as her wave of lust built up. As I sucked harder she waved her arms skyward snd grabbed her n******, pinching hard. A wild scream may have begun, but no sound was emitting from her gasping mouth. Her a** rippled and bounced on my legs. She stiffened and then looking into my eyes she collapsed against my body. Gasping for oxygen she sagged into e***** exstacy. Oh god oh god. I hugged her tiny body warmly. Was it good for you Lizz? I asked.
