Hyderabad: If you have a gaming account on EA Origin, Steam, Epic Games, GOG and other services then you need to be careful about your data. As per new research, a new trojan called BloodyStealer is targeting gamer’s accounts on these different gaming sites and scraping session data, passwords, bank card details, device data, screen shots and uTorrent files.
The report mentions that gaming logins and passwords to popular platforms are sold as cheaply as $14.2 per thousand accounts when sold in bulk and for 1-30 per cent of an account’s value when sold individually. “These stolen accounts do not come from accidental data leaks but are the result of deliberate cybercriminal campaigns that employ malware such as BloodyStealer,” says a report by Kaspersky.
Kaspersky experts detected attacks using BloodyStealer in Europe, Latin America, and the Asia-Pacific region. “Gaming accounts are clearly hunted by cybercriminals, so if you want to enjoy gaming peacefully and not worry that your in-game credit or accounts will be gone, make sure you protect your account through two-factor authentication and use a reliable security solution to protect your devices,” says Dmitry Galov, security researcher at Kaspersky’s Global Research and Analysis Team.
