Hackers Are Using MailChimp to Spread Malware

You probably know MailChimp either as an email newsletter service, or the company that seems to have adverts on every single podcast you’ve ever listened to. Hackers recently jumped on that popularity, and managed to send out emails containing malicious links to subscribers of various different companies.

The incident shows that hackers will likely use whatever distribution channels they can in an attempt to spread their malware and turn a profit.
