12:06 The Bank has filed a lawsuit on the victim kibermoshennichestva | |
An interesting precedent may appear after a trial in Texas. Local Bank PlainsCapital sued his client, the company Hillary Machinery, which has become a victim of kibermoshennichestva. In November, hackers with Romanian and Italian IP-addresses emptied the bank account of Hillary Machinery for $ 801,495. Approximately $ 600 thousand of this amount was later compensated by the bank. The aggrieved company to repay, and the remaining amount. In a letter (scan under habrakatom), the company argues its claims that the theft was made possible due to insufficient reliable security system PlainsCapital. In response, the bank filed a lawsuit and demanded an examination of its safety systems. According to the plaintiff, their security arrangements are "commercially reasonable". Theft of money was made using a valid bank details of the client. The Bank believes that there was no reason to believe this fraud. The client thinks differently. First, never before money from this account are not transferred abroad. Secondly, a large sum was withdrawn in a few dozen transactions for two or three days, that too should have to initiate firing of triggers in the security system but this did not happen. Each translation is left for the new account, while at Hillary Machinery is a limited set of counterparties with which transactions are carried out continuously. As part of a lawsuit the bank asks for nothing from Hillary Machinery, he just asks to recognize its security system, as mentioned above, the "commercially reasonable". This is the first such action in the history of American justice, though now in U.S. courts under consideration several similar lawsuits filed by customers of banks to recognize the weakness of the security systems of their banks and return them to the stolen money.
