Dan il-ka\u017c se\u0127\u0127 f\u2019Mejju 2025, fejn il-vittma, li se nsej\u0127ulha Rita, kienet fil-mira ta\u2019 attakk koordinat li g\u0127aqqad flimkien smishing (SMS frawdolenti) u spoofing (fejn in-numru tat-telefon jidher b\u0127ala wie\u0127ed le\u0121ittimu). Il-vittma r\u010beviet messa\u0121\u0121 fuq il-mowbajl tag\u0127ha li deher fl-istess skambjament ta\u2019 komunikazzjonijiet le\u0121ittimi li kellha mal-bank tag\u0127ha. Dan wassalha biex temmen li l-messa\u0121\u0121 kien wie\u0127ed uffi\u010b\u010bjali meta fir-realt\u00e0 ma kienx il-ka\u017c. F\u2019dan l-SMS, hija \u0121iet infurmata li kienet innotata \u201cattivit\u00e0 mhux tas-soltu u suspettu\u017ca\u201d fuq il-kont tag\u0127ha. <\/p>\n\n
Ftit minuti wara, Rita r\u010beviet telefonata. In-numru li deher fuq il-mowbajl kien identiku g\u0127al dak uffi\u010bjali tal-bank, u l-persuna fuq in-na\u0127a l-o\u0127ra tkellmet bil-Malti b\u2019mod fluwenti. Il-persuna ppre\u017centat ru\u0127ha b\u0127ala rappre\u017centant tal-bank u wriet g\u0127arfien tajjeb tal-pro\u010beduri bankarji, anke billi semmiet tipi spe\u010bifi\u010bi ta\u2019 kontijiet biex tikseb aktar fidu\u010bja.
Waqt li \u017cammitha fuq il-linja, il-frodist bag\u0127tilha SMS ie\u0127or li kien jinkludi link. Hi ng\u0127atat struzzjonijiet biex tag\u0127fas fuq il-link, idda\u0127al il-User ID tag\u0127ha u ssegwi pro\u010bess \u0121did ta\u2019 awtentikazzjoni. Biex tibqa\u2019 konvinta, l-frodist taha wkoll numru ta\u2019 referenza falz tal-in\u010bident u \u0127allieha tistenna g\u0127al diversi minuti, taparsi qed ja\u0127dem biex iwaqqaf il-pagamenti frawdolenti. Minkejja t-twissijiet pubbli\u010bi li l-banek qatt ma jibag\u0127tu links permezz ta\u2019 SMS u li wie\u0127ed qatt m\u2019g\u0127andu jaqsam dettalji personali b\u0127al passwords jew User IDs, il-kombinazzjoni ta\u2019 spoofing u l-kredibilit\u00e0 tal-persuna wasslu lil Rita biex tosserva l-istruzzjonijiet tal-frodist. <\/p>\n\n
\u0120aladarba da\u0127\u0127let il-kredenzjali tag\u0127ha, il-frodisti kisbu a\u010b\u010bess s\u0127i\u0127 g\u0127all-kont tag\u0127ha. Matul l-istess \u0121urnata, huma trasferixxew qrib l-\u20ac4,000 permezz ta\u2019 sensiela ta\u2019 pagamenti konsekuttivi, kull wie\u0127ed ftit inqas minn \u20ac1,000 biex jevitaw li jqanqlu sistemi awtomati\u010bi ta\u2019 sigurt\u00e0. Is-serq twaqqaf biss meta Rita kkuntattjat lill-bank tag\u0127ha. It-tim tas-sigurt\u00e0 tal-bank irnexxielu jwaqqaf wie\u0127ed mill-a\u0127\u0127ar pagamenti, i\u017cda l-ma\u0121\u0121oranza tal-fondi kienu di\u0121\u00e0 \u0121ew trasferiti lejn kontijiet ikkontrollati mill-frodisti. <\/p>\n\n
