As with other online trends, cybercriminals are closely following this increased interest in gaming as they look for ways to exploit this trend for personal gain. Web antivirus detections for sites that included the names of popular games and platforms rose significantly last year with Kaspersky's researchers observing a 54 percent increase in the daily number of blocked redirects between April 2020 when compared to June 2020. As was the case with Kaspersky's investigation last year, the most popular game used as a lure by cybercriminals continues to be Minecraft. However, this year Counter Strike: Global Offensive has been gaining on Minecraft as the most popular game used as bait.
