Banco del Austro · 2015-01
In January 2015, Ecuador’s Banco del Austro lost about $12 million after attackers used compromised payment systems to send fraudulent SWIFT transfers, routing much of the money to companies in Hong Kong. Carnegie reporting says the bank recovered about $2.8 million and later sued Wells Fargo over the transfers; Group-IB later listed the case in a Lazarus-relevant SWIFT-theft timeline.
