Summary

Hide ▲

Tycoon2FA has shifted from a subscription-based PhaaS and AitM credential harvester into a more resilient campaign that now uses device-code phishing against Microsoft 365 accounts. After an international law-enforcement operation in March that removed 330 domains and was tied to over 64,000 phishing incidents, the service rebuilt and by late April was again being used in campaigns abusing the OAuth 2.0 device authorization grant. In the latest reporting, eSentire says invoice-themed lure emails with Trustifi click-tracking URLs route victims through Trustifi, Cloudflare Workers, obfuscated JavaScript, and a fake Microsoft CAPTCHA page before reaching microsoft.com/devicelogin. The kit also added stronger anti-analysis controls, including checks for Selenium, Puppeteer, Playwright, and Burp Suite, plus a 230-vendor blocklist.

    Europol-led takedown dismantles Tycoon 2FA

    Legal Policy Action Update

    Europol and private-sector partners dismantled Tycoon 2FA, a subscription-based phishing-as-a-service toolkit used for adversary-in-the-middle credential harvesting and account takeover. The service first emerged in August 2023, was later tracked by Microsoft under the name Storm-1747, became the most prolific platform Microsoft observed in 2025, and was tied to over 64,000 phishing incidents, tens of millions of phishing emails each month, and unauthorized access to nearly 100,000 organizations globally. The platform captured credentials, MFA codes, and session cookies, forwarded stolen data to Telegram for near-real-time monitoring, used short-lived FQDNs on Cloudflare, and targeted sectors including education, healthcare, finance, non-profit, and government; the operation also took down 330 domains used by the service.
