Operation High Roller, which was first detailed by researchers in mid-2012, was presumed to be waning, but new reports argue that cyber criminals are once more using automated client and server-side assaults to direct fund transfers to mule accounts, and in at least one case attempted a fraudulent transaction for a  around€61,000, which would have been a pretty good payday for the malware developers.

had previously came across the banking Trojans titled Zeus and SpyEye had been altered for use in automated attacks that can bypass multi-factor authentication systems to target high-value bank accounts.

The assumption was that the formula was largely being abandoned after the exploits were publicly detailed by researchers, but evidence establishes that the method is now being aimed at accounts with admittance to the European SEPA payments network.

The new operation utilizes the injection of a Concealed iFRAME tag to take over a victim’s account and automatically transfer finances without the attacker having to manually conduct the transaction applying a different system, as was most often the case in instances where Zeus and SpyEye have been utilized to exfiltrate account credentials and empty an account.
