European law enforcement dismantled and seized an expansive cybercrime operation used to facilitate phishing attacks via mobile networks for fraud, including account intrusions, credential and financial data theft, Europol said Friday.
Investigators from Austria, Estonia and Latvia linked the cybercrime networks to more than 3,200 fraud cases, which also involved investment scams and fake emergencies for financial gain. Financial losses amounted to about $5.3 million in Austria and $490,000 in Latvia, authorities said.
