Fake OnlyFans cybercrime tool infects hackers with malware

September 5, 2024 at 06:24AM

Hackers deceive other hackers by distributing a fake tool for OnlyFans, infecting them with Lumma stealer malware. This exemplifies the blurred lines in cybercrime. Lumma is an info-stealing malware, with the capability to spread additional payloads and regain expired Google tokens. Veriti’s findings also uncover a broader operation targeting Disney+ and Instagram accounts, among others.

It seems that the meeting notes discuss a sophisticated cybercrime campaign where hackers are targeting other hackers with a fake OnlyFans tool that actually infects them with the Lumma stealer information-stealing malware. The operation reveals the complex dynamics of cybercrime, blurring the lines between predator and prey.

The tool, known as a “checker,” is designed to validate stolen login credentials for OnlyFans accounts. Without such tools, cybercriminals would have to manually test thousands of credential pairs, making the scheme impractical. However, these malicious tools are created by other cybercriminals and can backfire, as seen in the case discovered by Veriti.

The Lumma malware is an advanced information stealer rented to cybercriminals and distributed through various means, including GitHub. It is capable of stealing a wide range of sensitive information, including two-factor authentication codes, cryptocurrency wallets, and stored passwords and credit cards. Additionally, it can introduce additional payloads onto compromised systems and execute PowerShell scripts.

Furthermore, the campaign includes other malicious payloads targeting Disney+ account thieves, Instagram hackers, and potential botnet creators. The malware communicates with command and control servers, indicating a sophisticated and organized operation.

This campaign reflects a broader trend of threat actors targeting other cybercriminals in malicious attacks, highlighting the evolving and interconnected nature of cybercrime.

Is there anything else I can help you with regarding these meeting notes?
