Authorities in São Paulo are investigating a criminal group responsible for stealing 25 million reais from a digital bank through at least 400 fraudulent transactions. The operation targeted five cities in the state. Concurrently, a new cybercrime threat has emerged involving a mobile virus called BRats, which infects smartphones when users download apps from unofficial sources. This malware enables criminals to empty victims' bank accounts via fraudulent Pix transactions without their knowledge. The fraud method has been linked to recent cases in Brazil, including one where a businesswoman lost nearly $100,000 after installing a fake banking application that granted criminals access to her funds. Experts warn that such cyberattacks are becoming increasingly common in the country.
