Desperate Gmail and YouTube users are turning to official and unofficial Google support forums after hackers take over their accounts, bypassing two-factor authentication security and then locking them out. Time and time again, the attackers appear to be part of a cryptocurrency scam supposedly giving away Ripple’s XRP to those responding.
The Proofpoint Emerging Threats researchers say that a range of information-stealing malware is being disseminated via YouTube channels and purporting to be pirated video games or associated software cracks. Using video descriptions as bait, promising viewers tips on how to download video games for free, the links actually end up taking the user to sites delivering a malware payload instead.
A range of different information-stealing malware was found to be distributed this way, including Lumma Stealer, StealC and Vidar. There were also, the researchers said, “multiple distinct activity clusters distributing information stealers via YouTube.” This means it isn’t possible to attribute the campaigns to any specific threat actor or cybercrime group. However, the common denominator is the technical methods employed which were seen to be similar.
