Online gambling is a buzz Internet activity allowing malicious parties to enjoy the "pull effect" by end users who themselves look for and download such applications. In this spamming campaign, however, we have a combination of a "push" approach, segmentation targeting European users, social engineering in the form of a promotion, and typosquatting. The first campaign (SetupCasino.exe) is currently hosted in China (116.199.136.29) on a host managing a second online gambling scam campaign impersonating Golden Gate Casino (SmartDownload.exe) under the following domains topgamecasino.net; superroyalcasino.com; nlymycasino.cn; lookforcasino.cn
