BloodyStealer Trojan takes aim at gaming accounts

A new Trojan by the name of BloodyStealer is targeting Steam, GOG, Epic Games, Origin, Bethesda, and other gaming-related accounts.

BloodyStealer gathers data including cookies, user credentials, payment card details, and even screenshots, and uploads it all in a zip file to the attackers' command-and-control (C&C) server.

The cyberthreat has already been spotted globally, affecting users in Europe, Latin America, and the Asia-Pacific region. BloodyStealer is using a malware-as-a-service model, with a price tag of $10 per month or $40 for a lifetime license.

Acronis Cyber Protect uses advanced behavioral detection to identify and block even brand-new threats like BloodyStealer before they can execute, keeping your sensitive data safe from harm.
