SuperCard
SuperCard is an Android banking trojan described as a modified version of the legitimate open-source NFC relay tool NFCGate. It has been reported as developed in China and offered as malware-as-a-service, and has been used in attacks against banks in Europe and Russia, including bank customers in Italy. The malware supports NFC cloning/relay attacks and is used for financial theft by enabling attackers to emulate victims’ payment cards. In related NFCGate-based campaigns documented in Russia, malicious Android apps were distributed via WhatsApp and Telegram while masquerading as legitimate bank software. Victims were socially engineered by phone to install the app, then during a fake authorization flow were instructed to tap their bank card to the back of the phone and enter their PIN. This allowed attackers to capture card data and use the harvested credentials to withdraw cash from ATMs without the victim’s physical card. Reporting cited in the content notes increasing abuse of NFCGate-derived malware, with SuperCard specifically identified as one such variant deployed against bank customers in Russia and Italy.
