Nordea Bank
Time: 2000s
Place: Helsinki, Finland
Details: The attack started when the internet fraudsters sent an Email to the clients, deceiving them into believing that it came from the bank. The sender encouraged the clients to provide their login information and download a malicious piece of software. Users who downloaded the attacked files were infected by the Trojan virus. More than 365 individual Nordea accounts received payment over 150 Million Euros, equivalent to $171 Million. Nordea banned Bitcoin and has since been caught in a major money laundry scandal. It allegedly received dirty money from two banks in the Baltic.
Best-effort ordering. Some events may appear out of order since many are only known to the year, but they are usually around the same period.
