I'm wondering why the individual the amounts were so (relatively speaking) small? Perhaps some strategy to avoid tripping warning systems.
Do you know if the the £800 was all there was in that particular account?
- dx034 10y agoMost banks have a limit on transfers, but everything under £1000 should work without triggering any warning
- conjectures 10y agoAn interview with Tesco exec on Radio 4 this morning suggested something like this was going on. Obvs they don't say what their detection rules are. Which makes you wonder how the attackers gamed them (inside info, or reverse engineering after compromising many accounts?)
- dogma1138 10y agoHonestly based on the average amount in a checking account at a bank like this they probably could've drained the entire balance without triggering any limits.
