Call of Duty cheaters targeted with crypto-draining software
Gamers downloading cheats for the first-person shooter Call of Duty are reportedly being targeted by crypto-draining malware that has so far compromised the details of more than 4.9 million accounts. Call of Duty cheat provider Phantom Overlay was made aware of the malware campaign this week after users started to make unauthorized purchases. Phantom Overlay provides a marketplace for Call of Duty gamers to buy cheat s, such as aimbot and player detection behind walls. As reported by malware sleuth VX Underground, an unknown entity is using malware to steal the credentials of cheaters before publishing them online. The culprit has also infected users with crypto-draining malware capable of stealing bitcoin from Electrum wallets. Well, they're presumably stealing more than just their Call of Duty-related accounts. Being a cheater does not mean you should have your wallet drained. Or maybe some disagree ¯_(ツ)_/¯ — vx-underground (@vxunderground) March 28, 2024 Most users...
