Fraudulent websites have appeared on the Internet where you are required to enter personal data and leave a signature. This was announced by Alexander Vurasko, Director of Development at the Solar AURA Center for Monitoring External Digital Threats at Solar Group.
According to Solar AURA, scammers are creating fake websites that look like official portals of government agencies. In particular, they imitate the websites of Rosfinmonitoring. On these fake resources, users are asked to enter personal data and then draw a signature with the mouse cursor in a specially designated field.
Signatures obtained in this way, even if they are of poor quality, can be used by attackers for various purposes. First of all, this concerns signing documents and concluding contracts on behalf of a potential victim.
The specialist notes that very few such resources have been found at the moment. Nevertheless, he suggests that this scheme will develop, and new sites and scenarios for stealing signatures of Russian citizens will appear. Presumably, new sites will also be disguised as official web pages of government agencies.
To avoid such fraudulent schemes, Vurasko advised to be especially careful on the Internet. In particular, he recommended using only official websites, carefully checking their addresses using search engines. If you have doubts about the page you followed from an unknown source, it is better to find this site yourself in a search engine and work only with it.
Earlier it became known that scammers began calling Russians, posing as employees of research organizations and sociological centers. They want to record a person's voice to create deepfakes.
