The underground cybercriminal shop, “Validtools.ru”, has advertised
the sale of various compromised accounts, hacking and scamming tutorials and credit
card data. Typically, credentials are
seen only by the seller and buyer, but Wapack Labs analysts observed three
cases where logins and passwords associated with e-mail and major payment
processor accounts were exposed. These exposed credentials are assessed as
being either a material showcase or an actor’s mistake.
