The scammers organized a scheme to steal access to the personal accounts of partners’ order pick-up points. This was reported in Yandex Market.
The attackers present themselves as market support specialists and request access to the PVZ owner’s service accounts. Yandex Market is aware of several cases of account hacking using this scheme.
Yandex Market emphasized that market employees do not request data to access your account.
“If the actions of people posing as Market employees seem suspicious to you, ask for help via chat in your personal account,” Yandex Market noted.
Marketplace recommended resolving operational issues through support in your personal account, as well as conducting an access audit of the collection point’s personal accounts.
