So the approach is:
1. Create something people really want
2. Create a website that looks like a standard startup website
3. Offer an executable for download
Is "infostealers" an actual thing or just the article coining a new phrase for malware?
"infostealer" is a well established term referring to trojans that scrape things like session cookies and saved credentials from a victims computer.
Huh thanks, learned something new today.
Does it get flagged at VirusTotal?
