We wrote in our predictions for 2011 about cyber attacks that steal everything. In fact cybercriminals are interested in stealing all kinds of data, including the miles you accumulate in frequent flyer programs. Customers of Brazilian airline companies are being targeted by a flood of phishing messages whose goal is to steal customer’s accounts and their miles in the frequent flyer programs maintained by local airlines. The miles stolen from customers are becoming a new kind of currency among Brazilian cybercriminals and phishers, who can use them to issue tickets for themselves, sell tickets to other criminals or use them in barter schemes.
The attacks involve the sending of phishing messages in mass mailings that promise more points in a frequent flyer program or offer a supposed prize. In some attacks the customer is asked to re-register on a fake website:
"Register now and earn more miles in the frequent flyer program"
