In a
cybercrime ecosystem, dominated by fraudulent market propositions,
and new market entrants occupying new market segments on a daily
basis, cybercriminals are perfectly positioned, to continue offering,
commoditized underground market goods, such as, for instance, fake
documents, for the purpose of generating fraudulent revenue, while
empowering fellow cybercriminas, with the necessary tools to further
commit fraudulent activities.
In
this post, we'll, discuss a newly launched service, offering fake press
accreditation documents, and discuss the overall relevance of the
service, in the context of the underground marketplace's ongoing
commoditization, basic market segmentation concepts, as well as newly
applied concepts such as DIY (do-it-yourself) type of services, and
basic OPSEC with QA (Quality Assurance) in mind.
The
service is currently offering custom-made press accreditation
documents for the Russian Federation, allowing potential
cybercriminals the ability to access press-free zones, potentially
commiting related fraudulent activities.
The
price varies between $62 and $130 depending on the
number of fake documents requested, including the option to request
anonymous delivery of the fake documents.
Thanks
to a vibrant DIY (do-it-yourself) custom-based type of fake documents
generating market segment, cybercriminals, have also successfully
managed to efficiently streamline the process of generating these
documents, applying, both, basic OPSEC (Operational Security)
measures in place, to ensure that they're perfectly positioned to
reach to their targeted audience, while preserving a decent degree of
their operational procedures, as well as Q&A (Quality Assurance)
processes, to further ensure the quality of their underground market
proposition.
We expect to continue
observing a decent supply of segmented market propositions,
targeting, both, novice and experienced cybercriminals, seeking to
obtain fake documents, on their way to commit related fraudulent
activities.
