Cyber sleuths uncover nefarious techniques to take malware (dubbed Omnistealer) posted in GitHub and use social engineering techniques to get it embedded into blockchains where the malware may be stored forever and make it difficult to root out as the chains grow.

"Hiding malicious payloads within blockchain has become an emerging obfuscation technique."

Omnistealer is capable of stealing cryptocurrency, passwords and privileged credentials for accessing an organization's information. https://www.pcmag.com/news/malware-is-sleeping-on-the-blockchain-and-its-already-infected-dozens-of #CyberSecurity #Ransom-ISAC #Security #CyberAttack #Malware #BlockChain #GitHub #FakeJobs #FakeRecruiters #JobInterviews #OmniStealer #Cyber #SocialEngineering

Hah!

I followed up with a business who had been hosting a hidden phishing job scam portal and confirmed they have had (at least the scam index page) REMOVED. Small wins are nice.

Just when you thought the job market couldn't get any weirder.

We've all heard of fake jobs and phishing attempts. But did you know there are also fake job seekers who use AI to mask their real identity?

"Scammers can use AI at almost every step in the job application process to hide their true identities. They can generate fake resumes, professional headshots, websites and LinkedIn profiles. Compiled together, AI can help create what looks like the perfect candidate for an open role. Once they're in, these fraudsters can steal company secrets or install malware. [...]
According to re search and advisory firm Gartner, an estimated one in four job applicants will be fake by 2028."

Not great news for genuine freelancers and job seekers who'd love to get remote roles.
