“Dutch cybercrime police last week busted four men on charges that they used the banking malware known as TorRAT to steal an estimated $1.4 million from consumers. The Dutch gang allegedly laundered money through Bitcoin transactions and even set up their own Bitcoin exchange service — FBTC Exchange — that went dark after the arrests. The Dutch investigation also resulted in police seizing from the TorRAT gang 56 Bitcoins, which authorities exchanged for over 7,700 euros ($10,000). While authorities haven’t revealed what tipped them off, the FBI may have shared the real IP addresses of the alleged Tor Mail-using TorRAT gang members with Dutch police.”
