RoT Alert – Active Phishing Campaign

On September 2nd, 2021 we discovered and confirmed an active phishing campaign targeting users of 7 major European banks from a single web page.

The web page mimics Czech Post’s PohledniceOnline service to scam people into leaving their online banking credentials and credit card details.

Upon visiting the phishing site the user is welcomed by this screen which promises to transfer money in 2 installments to the user’s account:

The unsuspecting victim is then redirected to a page with several options to submit their information:

There are 2 distinct ways how this page aims to steal the critical information.

First is through a card payment gateway:

Second, through a ‘redirect’ to a specific bank gateway:

The full report, with technical details, screenshots and URLs is available on request and to RoT members.

If you wish to double check if your bank is listed here and receive the phishing URL and technical details, write to .

Mitigation steps undertaken

Our SOC team has already taken some mitigation steps by reporting the phishing URL to Safe Browsing, reporting it to the domain registrar and the hosting provider.

Our recommendation

We recommend you alert your users that there’s an active phishing campaign offering money in 2 installments while emulating web pages featuring: Česká Pošta (including their PohledniceOnline service branding) and fake banking gateways.

Depending on the capabilities of your existing security solution, try to find out which of your users have visited the phishing URL prior to coming to your site.

If you need help and require more details about this campaign please write us to


About Ring of Trust (RoT)

ThreatMark’s Ring of Trust (RoT)–is an invite-only initiative that aims to combat phishing frauds in the banking industry with a community approach: by sharing cyber threat intelligence among the members and disseminating the information for a faster and timely response.

Our technology uses various on-page and off-page methods to detect wide array of threats across digital channels. All detections are categorized and added to our Threat Intelligence systems for easier mitigation and future detections.
