ZachXBT continues to prove himself as a world leading expert in crypto analysis. It is remarkable how a single person can make such a profound impact.
He gave law enforcement everything they needed on a silver plate. He got them busted in less than 2 months.
tl;dr speedrun
Attached PDF is from Twitter. It is how he got 2 crypto thieves arrested for stealing $243,000,000.
RansomHub ransomware groups claims to have ransomed Liberty First Credit Union.
Liberty First Credit Union is a small to medium sized credit union (not-for-profit bank) located in Omaha, Nebraska.
Oh and pagers and walkie talkies exploding. This does not fall into the realm of malware, or news we would typically discuss, but there is a high volume of people who believe this to be malware.
It's not malware. They snuck explosives into the devices.
Have a nice day.
If you're curious what pain looks like:

Lockbit ransomware group claims to have ransomed eFile dot com.
eFile dot com IS NOT the IRS eFile system. eFile dot com is an IRS authorized entity approved for submitting financial documents to the IRS.
Update:
We found the guy who owns the MALWRE plate and he has received the sticker.
Oh. My. God.
The possibilities for initial access malware just went through the roof.
We've learned some of you don't have Xitter, or the ability to see the post, so here it is as a PDF so you don't have to do stuff.

We don't know much about pagers, or explosives.
But what we do know a little about is malware and we can promise you there is not some 1337 technique that magically transforms a regular battery into an incendiary device.
tl;dr modified pagers, science or something
"Everyone has to return to office. I only made $29,300,000 last year. How am I going to afford my new yacht on this salary?" — Andy Jassy, CEO of Amazon

Amazon announced starting in 2025 all workers will be expected to be back in the office.
Amazon employees jumped with joy knowing they will now have to wake up earlier, commute, waste time and money on travel, spend less time with their families, and deal with office politics!
It's corporate propaganda to say tech workers want to return to the office.

This is actually a good point. Most people playing video games are probably casual, don't want to buy a computer, and just want to relax in the living room, or wherever, and play on a controller.
Also, older consoles are cool and badass. Sega Dreamcast Podracing was badass
There is no information on the impact to customers. We don't believe clients money is gone — this isn't an attack against SWIFT. We presume this to be an attack against the institutions internal financial documents and employees.
However, we could also be completely wrong.
> OMG John Hammond's proof-of-concept trick is being used by Lumma stealer!!!
Us, with a giant library of malware source code and malware builders:
Crazy Thursday.
- Dr. Web, the Russian antivirus company, disclosed a breach. Dr. Web stopped sending antivirus updates September 16th. Subsequently, Dr. Web reportedly disconnected their servers from their internal network while they investigated the suspected compromise. Dr. Web reports to have resolved the issue and has returned to normal day-to-day operations. No Threat Actor has been attributed to the compromise. They believe the compromise occurred on or around September 14th.
- Yesterday, or sometime before, GitHub users were targeted in mass by a large scale phishing and/or malware campaign. An unknown Threat Actor(s) pushed their Lumma Stealer campaign by leaving bogus issues on GitHub projects. When the project owner visited the issue, the issue linked to a domain titled 'GitHub-Scanner'. GitHub-Scanner requested the visitor prove their humanity (e.g. not a robot) by doing Windows + R and CTRL + V + ENTER. When the site is visited, the website copies malicious code to the users clipboard. Windows + R, opening Windows Run, and CTRL + V, pasting the malicious code to the Run window and ENTER would run the code, this would trick the user into executing their malware payload. Once the payload is executed, it downloads a file called 'IE6.exe'. IE6.exe is Lumma information stealer. While it is a clever trick, the Threat Actor(s) (intentionally, or unintentionally) did not account for users who are not running Windows. This caused confusion for non-Windows users, or users on mobile devices.

Actually, maybe not. Microsoft has upped the ante. It's all over.
We didn't anticipate Microsoft actually caring 😭
We spotted someone in California with the license plate "MALWRE".
We left a sticker on your driver side window
tl;dr tl;dr this guy fuckin' nailed it and we believe him to be an expert figure on hardware hacking and big brain sciency magic stuff

Amazon employees are making six figures. Free coffee is 100% not a make-or-break situation. Half these nerds are probably burning money on Uber Eats because they don't even want to walk to the kitchen
In the United States this is an actual career path. The job title is "Influencer". If done correctly you can get as much as $100,000/video by the Kremlin
