Advisory Id: 2009-11-038 NACHA being targeted by Jabber/Zeus Trojan
We have been notified of a Phishing Alert from NACHA Member Communications. It appears that random individuals and/or companies may have received a falsified e-mail with the subject title "Rejected ACH Transaction". The e-mail appears to be from NACHA - The Electronic Payments Association and indicates that there is a problem with an ACH transaction they have originated. The e-mail includes a link which redirects the individual to a fraudulent web page which mimics the NACHA website and contains a link which is likely to include an executable virus with malware.
NACHA HAS INFORMED US THAT THIS EMAIL DID NOT ORIGINATE FROM NACHA AND THAT THIS IS NOT THE NACHA WEBSITE. DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK.
Below is a sample e-mail:
