Redirection Malware Very Good Leads to Fake AV

If you look at our Labs malware dump for the last few days, you will find something odd in the name of the top domains distributing malware:

712 redirections http://moi-verygoods.ru/simmetry?6
154 redirections http://moiverygoods.ru/simmetry?6
135 redirections http://webverygoods.ru/simmetry?6
131 redirections http://moiverygoods.ru/simmetry?6
88 redirections http://24-verygoods.ru/in.cgi?9


Can you see the similarity? All of them have “very good” as part of the domain name. And this is not something that started today, but for the last few weeks we are seeing many domains following the same pattern. This type of malware acts in the same way as the Blackmuscats, redirecting users visiting a hacked site to Fake AV via .htaccess redirections.

These are some other domains we are seeing:

As far as location, most of them are on 212.71.10.220 and hosted with many other malicious domains. Another interesting correlation is that all those domains were registered on July 18.
