ZeuS was its predecessor. Both strains were used by cybercriminals to harvest banking login details and empty innocent victims&#8217; bank accounts, whether those accounts belonged to individuals, businesses or even <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.co.uk\/2011\/02\/22\/zeus_2_factor_authentication_attack\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">banks themselves<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If Yakubets, who used the online moniker &#8216;Aqua&#8217;, ever leaves the safety of Russia he will be arrested and extradited to the US,&#8221; thundered the NCA today, expressing the hope that other cybercrims will now find him &#8220;toxic&#8221; to deal with.<\/p>\n<p>NCA chief exec Lynne Owens said in a canned statement: &#8220;It is our assessment that Maksim Yakubets and Evil Corp \u2013 the cybercrime group he controls \u2013 represent the most significant cybercrime threat to the UK.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Yakubets is said to have &#8220;employed dozens of people&#8221; to run his operations from the basements of Moscow caf\u00e9s.<\/p>\n<p>American prosecutor Brian Benczkowski said today: &#8220;Because many of the victims are small and medium enterprises, their accounts typically don&#8217;t have the same legal protections afforded to consumer accounts. Some of the losses involved were particularly devastating. They did not discriminate in their choice of targets.&#8221; He also alleged that among other individuals and corporate entities, the Russian duo had targeted a US-based order of Franciscan nuns.<\/p>\n<p>Rob Jones, director of the NCA&#8217;s cybercrime unit, told the US-based press conference that the operation to identify Yakubets and Turashev &#8220;goes back many years&#8221;, hinting that British police agencies and the NCSC had been <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.co.uk\/2016\/02\/04\/dridex_botnet_pwned\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">actively trying<\/a> to &#8220;degrade the threat posed by the organisation&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We estimate 300 organisations in 43 countries were affected in these attacks and that&#8217;s an underestimate,&#8221; said Jones, adding that &#8220;tens of millions of pounds&#8221; had been &#8220;stolen&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Jones said that British investigators on the trail of the Evil Corp gang had pieced together their identities bit by bit over &#8220;many years&#8221;, meticulously piecing together &#8220;a trail of breadcrumbs that leads you back to real-world identities&#8221;, adding: &#8220;That shows these people have made significant mistakes online.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Not wasting the opportunity of having British and American news media hanging off his every word, Jones also appeared to have a pop at apparent criticism from within the British police establishment directed at his unit.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A fundamental point around cybercrime: many will say, as colleagues have already pointed out, you&#8217;re wasting your time trying to arrest people, deliver evidence. That is plain wrong. We will extend our reach, we have a long memory, we will relentlessly pursue individuals online.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Both men live in Russia. An American confirmed in this afternoon&#8217;s press conference that the Russian authorities had co-operated with a mutual legal assistance treaty request but refused to give details. \u00ae<\/p>\n<p
