The majority of phishing sites mimicked a Microsoft account or a specific Microsoft service, but a significant number of sites \u2014 26% \u2014 were disguised as the login for Adobe Document Cloud.<\/p>\n<p>The attackers also did not give defenders much time to react to a credential compromise, says Crane Hasson, senior director of threat research at Agari. Half of all credentials were verified in 12 hours, and nearly all of the email credentials (91%) were verified in a week.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Because there&#8217;s such a big online economy for compromised accounts, many people have the perception that these accounts sit idly by for a period of time before they&#8217;re sold,&#8221; he says. &#8220;Our research shows this isn&#8217;t the case.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>With more companies moving infrastructure to the cloud, credentials have become the coin of the digital realm. In 2020, attackers inundated websites with credential stuffing attacks \u2014 using stolen usernames, email addresses, and passwords against a variety of sites \u2014 with Internet infrastructure firm Akamai <a href=\"https:\/\/beta.darkreading.com\/cloud\/credential-stuffing-reaches-193-billion-login-attempts-annually\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">seeing more than 193 billion failed attempts by attackers to access sites<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.agari.com\/email-security-blog\/inside-compromised-account\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Agari &#8220;Anatomy of a Compromised Account&#8221; report<\/a> looks at the details of the problem. First, it created fake accounts and next it submitted the account access credentials to a known phishing site. The company, which was bought by HelpSystems in May, then tracked how attackers used the compromised services.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In one case, the attackers used the email address to send out more than 12,000 messages in a two-hour period to employees of real estate title companies, which handle payments and arrangements for mortgages, with a malicious link that sends them to a site that attempts to phish their credentials. Another phishing site owner used a kit by a Russian malware developer that automatically verified the accounts, and then forwarded the credential to the client, while keeping a copy for themselves.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our report really shows the multifaceted ways compromised accounts are exploited by cybercriminals,&#8221; Hasson says. &#8220;These accounts weren&#8217;t [used] in just one or two ways. Like a Swiss Army knife, the compromised accounts were used to facilitate a variety of different malicious activities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>While the days of the Nigerian Prince scam are past, the country accounted for almost half (47%) of all usage of compromised credentials, followed by the United States at 19%, and South Africa and the United Arab Emirates tied at 6% each. The majority of the actors accessed the accounts using a proxy, but Agari could detect the actual location of an actor in 41% of cases, Hasson says.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;While these actors are the ones using the credentials, they aren&#8217;t necessarily the same actors that stood up the phishing site,&#8221; he says. &#8220;We know there&#8217;s a robust economy for compromised credentials, so it&#8217;s likely a share of these actors have been provided access to the accounts from another actor.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Most of the time, the credentials were used to send malicious links to gather credentials from targeted industries, including real estate and banking. In many cases, an attacker posed as a vendor and sent fictional invoices in an attempt to collect. In other cases, the scammer sent a purported price list to Chinese companies that would install the Agent Tesla information-stealing malware, Agari says.<\/p>\n<p>The security firm plans to improve its research methods. During the study, the company did not populate the accounts with emails that could have enticed attackers into taking actions and reveal more about themselves. Blank email accounts likely raise suspicions among some attackers, Hasson says. He explains: &#8220;Because our persona mailboxes didn&#8217;t contain actual emails \u2014 this is actually work we&#8217;re expecting to do in the second phase of our research \u2014 it&#8217;s likely that some of the attackers abandoned the accounts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"italic\">Veteran technology journalist of more than 20 years.
