Subject: New phishing campaign targets 'First Data' merchant accounts

JANUARY 25, SOFTPEDIA

Researchers from e-mail security vendor AppRiver warn about a phishing campaign that targets merchant accounts from a payment processing vendor called First Data. The pool of phishing attacks targets online banking accounts, credit card information, personal details, and other online accounts. Scams aimed at merchants are not very common. "Once the hacker has gained access to the First Data account they will likely have gained control over that specific merchants account," warned a security researcher at AppRiver.

First Data is an Atlanta-based provider of online and on-site payment solutions which caters to merchants, financial institutions and government agencies. Its product portfolio includes credit and debit card processing, check acceptance and cashing solutions, international payment processing, automated clearing house payments processing and PCI compliance.

The company explains on its site that "the Global Gateway Virtual Terminal is an online payment application that allows you to accept credit cards and other payment types using your PC.

"The Virtual Terminal also acts as your Global Gateway account management application and allows you to view gateway processing reports, edit fraud settings, manage users, and more."
