Abstract
“ Following in the wake of the vOlk (Mexico) and S.A.P.Z. (Peru) botnets comes PiceBOT, a newbie to the Latin American cybercrime scene. The cost on the black market is currently around $140.
Like other crimeware of its kind, its main purpose is the distribution of malware that steals financial information through local pharming attacks (arbitrary modification of a hosts file). Despite its recent onset (less than a month) it has already been adopted by Latin American cybercriminals to target clients of major banks. So far we have recorded phishing attacks generated and managed through this botnet in Chile, Peru, Panama, Costa Rica, Mexico, Colombia, Uruguay, Venezuela, Ecuador, Nicaragua and Argentina.
