Overview

Threat actors collecting LuxTrust and credit card credentials

Explanation

This phishing involves collecting LuxTrust and credit card credentials.

The attack illustrated below starts with an e-mail that contains no message apart from a link (“MA MESSAGERIE”). This link then redirects the victim to a page where they can select one of the following LuxTrust related authentication options: Token, LuxTrust Scan or LuxTrust Mobile. The other options such as SmartCard, Signing Stick and eID Luxembourgeoise are missing from this phishing.

The next step is to choose one of 6 Luxembourgish financial institutions. Afterwards the victim is prompted to enter the respective authentication details (User ID, Password, OTP token), until they finally land on a page where they are asked for their card details.

All the steps described above have taken place on pages under the malicious domain s.newslettescreationslines.eu .

Prevention

If you are uncertain about the authenticity of an email, do not hesitate to contact the entity that seems to have sent you the email using a safe communication manner, using the phone for example (no phone number from the untrusted email must be used in order to verify the authenticity).
If you are working for the Luxembourgish government or are using any of the GOVCERT.LU services, it is important to forward phishing emails to us (using Reporting an incident or the Outlook button). This will allow us to take down phishing websites and protect members of our constituency.
