#CreditCards are the privatized #welfare system that made the majority of Real Americans™ poorer, while a handful laughed themselves silly into fake billions.

but at least, Black and all those other melanined people can't have welfare and nice things either. so there’s that.

LofyStealer: Malware targeting Minecraft players.

A sophisticated two-stage infostealer named LofyStealer, also known as GrabBot/Slinky, targets Minecraft players through social engineering. The malware comprises a 53.5MB Node.js-based loader disguised within legitimate libraries and a 1.4MB native C++ payload that executes directly in memory. It extracts cookies, passwords, tokens, credit cards, and IBANs from eight different browsers including Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera GX, and Firefox. The loader uses GitHub Actions for automated compilation while the payload employs direct syscalls to bypass EDR detection. Data is compressed via PowerShell, Base64-encoded, and exfiltrated to a Brazilian-hosted C2 server at 24.152.36.241. The operation is attributed with high confidence to the Brazilian cybercrime group LofyGang, operating a Malware-as-a-Service platform with Free and Premium tiers through a web panel branded as LofyStealer Advanced C2 Platform V2.0.

I just noted that #PlaceToPay is behind a two payment gateways in Chile:

- GetNet (Banco Santander)
- BanChile Pagos (Banco Chile)

I'm not against it, but fuck, their implementation is lackluster asides from the typical "WebCheckout", let alone documentation.

The worst thing, is that PlaceToPay supports almost everything you want. It's the implementors fault to offer something so miserable.
