Automated Sextortion Spyware Takes Webcam Pics of Victims Watching Porn

Infostealer Malware Targets Porn Viewers A new strain of malware, classified as an "infostealer," has emerged with a concerning feature. This malware is designed to monitor a target's web browsing activity, specifically looking for instances where the user is accessing NSFW (not safe for work) content. When the malware detects that the user is viewing pornographic material, it takes simultaneous screenshots and webcam photos of the victim. This alarming capability allows the malware to potentially capture compromising images of the user, which could then be used for sextortion or other malicious purposes. The existence of this type of malware highlights the growing threat of cybercriminals exploiting people's private activities for their own gain. Users are advised to be vigilant about their online security, maintain strong antivirus protection, and be cautious when engaging with unfamiliar or suspicious content online.
