Clase: Hoax
Un engaño es una advertencia falsa sobre un virus u otra pieza de código malicioso. Típicamente, un engaño toma la forma de un mensaje de correo electrónico advirtiendo al lector de un nuevo virus peligroso y sugiriendo que el lector pase el mensaje. Los engaños no causan daño en sí mismos, pero su distribución por usuarios bien intencionados a menudo causa miedo e incertidumbre. La mayoría de los proveedores de antivirus incluyen información fraudulenta en sus sitios web y siempre es recomendable verificar antes de reenviar los mensajes de advertencia.Más información

Tactics and Techniques: Mitre*
TA0005
Defense Evasion
The adversary is trying to avoid being detected.
Defense Evasion consists of techniques that adversaries use to avoid detection throughout their compromise. Techniques used for defense evasion include uninstalling/disabling security software or obfuscating/encrypting data and scripts. Adversaries also leverage and abuse trusted processes to hide and masquerade their malware. Other tactics’ techniques are cross-listed here when those techniques include the added benefit of subverting defenses.

Masquerading
Adversaries may attempt to manipulate features of their artifacts to make them appear legitimate or benign to users and/or security tools. Masquerading occurs when the name or location of an object, legitimate or malicious, is manipulated or abused for the sake of evading defenses and observation. This may include manipulating file metadata, tricking users into misidentifying the file type, and giving legitimate task or service names.
Renaming abusable system utilities to evade security monitoring is also a form of Masquerading.(Citation: LOLBAS Main Site) Masquerading may also include the use of Proxy or VPNs to disguise IP addresses, which can allow adversaries to blend in with normal network traffic and bypass conditional access policies or anti-abuse protections.
