Know your enemy: what organized crime is up to
“But they’re better run and managed than many organizations. They’re properly funded, they have a clear goal, they’re performance driven, focused on a single mission. It’s like an MBA case study of success.”
That's what a security person had to say about computer fraud rings in an article about organized cybercrime.
There is custom software to grab data from online forms. It can discard random forms and collect data just from online banking forms. Access to the results is rented to credit card fraudsters by the crooks who run the software on your computer.
Antivirus doesn't catch all the forms-stealing software. Think twice before you install things from the Web.
