This week, the ESET research team has published a report describing a malware campaign that took aim at Chinese-speaking people in Southeast and East Asia. The campaign involved malicious advertisements that appeared in Google search and lead people to fake websites that mimicked the websites of popular applications such as Firefox, WhatsApp, Signal, Skype, and Telegram, but in addition to providing the legitimate software, also delivered a Remote Access Trojan called FatalRAT.
