Researchers have documented a recent phishing campaign targeting online banking users which masquerades as Google in its attempt to steal valuable credentials.
According to cybersecurity researchers from Sucuri, the attack wave against a Polish bank and its users is impersonating Google reCAPTCHA systems and panic-eliciting techniques to prompt victims to click on malicious links embedded in scam emails.

"This page does a decent job at replicating the look of Google's reCAPTCHA, but since it relies on static elements, the images will always be the same unless the malicious PHP file's coding is changed," the researchers say. "It also doesn't support audio replay, unlike the real version."

The Trojan is detected as Banker, BankBot, Evo-gen, Artemis, and more by antivirus software.
