Malvertizers stealing old, watermarked graphics

image

 

There are reports of a malvertizement incident using a “Curves” malvertizement.

Note the watermark on the advertisement (which was being served via a domain that is attempting to spoof mediaplex:

adfarm.mediaplex.com.rulash.com/banners/load.php?id=215411729). 

I am sure that watermark belongs to Kimberley of Bluetack, which means that the miscreants have simply stolen a screenshot of an old malvertizement to use in the current campaign.  How lazy is *that*?

In fact, here is the graphic that was stolen, right here:
