"The notorious FIN7 threat group is combining artificial intelligence (AI) with social engineering in an aggressive, adult-themed threat campaign that dangles lures for access to technology that can "deepfake" nude photos — all to fool people into installing infostealing malware.
The powerful Russian financial cybercrime group has created at least seven websites that advertise for what's called a "DeepNude Generator," which promises to use deepfake technology transform any photo into a nude representation of the person pictured, according to new research from the threat hunters at Silent Push.
People can either download the generator via the site or sign up for a "free trial," demonstrating the sophistication of the scam. But instead of receiving the tool, they end up downloading malicious payloads such as the stealers Lumma and Redline, which can be used to deliver further malware such as ransomware"—Elizabeth Montalbano >
