“The majority of attacks appear to have taken place across European banking systems, but McAfee warns that it has found evidence of attacks at Latin American and North American financial institutions too. The company is warning that 60 servers have been processing thousands of attempted thefts from high-value accounts over a period of months, resulting in attempts to steal at least €60 million (US$78 million). McAfee says that if all the attempted fraud attacks were successful then the total attempted fraud could be as high as €2 billion ($2.49 billion).”http://investmentwatchblog.com/breaking-alert-huge-worldwide-cyber-bank-raid-ongoing-confirmed-e60m-taken-by-1-server-estimated-e2-billion-taken-by-another-59-servers/#.T-pflfUpfSN
