The post discusses how cybercriminals exploit iDEAL (now rebranded as Wero), a legitimate European payment system, to conduct phishing attacks. Attackers generate authentic-looking payment links to deceive victims into authorizing fraudulent transactions. These links appear trustworthy because they originate from the official payment infrastructure. The technique leverages the system’s built-in legitimacy to bypass security warnings.
