What is Express Package Finder Tab?

Express Package Finder Tab is a browser hijacker, which is endorsed as a tool for easy access to package tracking services. It operates by changing browser settings to promote a fake search engine (hp.hexpresspackagefinder.com). Additionally, it monitors users' browsing activity and gathers their personal information.

Express Package Finder Tab is also categorized as a Potentially Unwanted Application (PUA) due to its dubious proliferation methods. Note that it is often distributed together with another PUA called Hide My Searches.

What is Watch Television Online?

As its name suggests, the Watch Television Online app is designed to provide quick access to various popular TV shows. In fact, it is classed as a browser hijacker, since it changes browser settings to promote a fake search engine (in this case, search.watchtelevisiononlinetab.com) and a potentially unwanted application (PUA).

Most people do not download or install apps of this type (browser hijackers) intentionally. Furthermore, PUAs often record browsing data. Watch Television Online is distributed with another PUA called Hide My Searches. Neither of these apps should be trusted.

What is topoffert[.]com?

topoffert[.]com is a deceptive website, which operates by claiming that the visitor's device is infected and recommending an application for removal of the 'detected' threats. It endorses Solid VPN, MyProtect VPN, and other, similarly dubious apps. Note that no site can find issues/threats present on devices.

Any claims to this effect cannot be trusted. The same extends to the content they promote. Few users enter web pages such as topoffert[.]com intentionally - most are redirected by Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs) already infiltrated into their browsers.

What is ewaglongoo[.]com?

The ewaglongoo[.]com website leads visitors to a variety of other untrustworthy sites including, for example, notification-list[.]com. Typically, the opened web pages contain dubious content or open further rogue pages. In any case, neither ewaglongoo[.]com, nor sites opened through it, can be trusted.

Most people arrive at these websites when they have potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) installed on their browsers. Typically, apps of this type open untrustworthy websites (including ewaglongoo[.]com and others), record browsing data, and display intrusive advertisements.

What is "The last time you visited a Porn website" email?

"The last time you visited a Porn website" is a 'sextortion' scam that scammers employ to send emails to extort money from unsuspecting users. They threaten to proliferate a 'humiliating video' of the email recipient, unless their demands to pay a ransom are met immediately. The best way to react to emails of this kind is to not take them seriously and simply ignore them.

What is Calum?

Calum is malicious software belonging to the Phobos ransomware family. Malware under this classification is designed to encrypt data and demand ransom payments for decryption. During encryption, all affected files are appended with the victim's unique ID, developer's email address, and the ".Calum" extension (".id[victim's_ID].[annali1984@cock.li].Calum").

Therefore, "1.jpg" might appear similar to "1.jpg.id[1E857D00-2473].[annali1984@cock.li].Calum", and so on.

After this process is complete, the "info.hta" and "info.txt" files are stored in certain affected folders. Updated variants of this ransomware use ".[decryptonlinemail@pm.me].Calum" and ".[backcompanyfiles@protonmail.com].Calum" extensions for encrypted files.

What is videostream[.]best?

videostream[.]best is one of many rogue websites designed to redirect visitors to other web pages of this kind, or to load dubious content.

Some other examples include loading-wsite[.]com, private-show[.]live, and sonagerthrou[.]com. Generally, browsers open these sites when potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) are installed. Therefore, most people are forced to visit the rogue sites inadvertently. PUAs can also gather browsing data and serve ads.

What kind of malware is Mispadu?

Mispadu (also known as URSA) is the name of a banking Trojan. Cyber criminals behind this software target people living in Brazil, Spain and Mexico.

They seek to steal credentials, credit card and banking data. Research shows that this malware is distributed through spam campaigns and malicious advertisements. People with computers infected with Mispadu are likely to experience monetary loss and online privacy issues. This banking Trojan should be removed from the system immediately.

What is loading-wsite[.]com?

loading-wsite[.]com is a rogue site sharing similarities with private-show.live, bestflowingstuff.co, 1backlinks.com, and many others. It presents visitors with dubious content and generate redirects to other, untrustworthy and malicious web pages.

Few visitors to these websites enter them willingly - most are redirected by intrusive ads or Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs) already installed on the device. Note that these apps do not need express permission to infiltrate systems. Furthermore, PUAs cause redirects, run intrusive ad campaigns, and track data.

What is NUKESPED?

NUKESPED is a backdoor Trojan, which targets Mac users in Korea. The group of cyber criminals who designed and spread this malware is called Lazarus. 

They distributed this malicious software through an Excel document using a Mac App bundle, which contains legitimate and malicious versions of Adobe Flash Player files. Cyber criminals employ NUKESPED as a tool to remotely access and control infected computers.
