Fake "The Odyssey" pirated downloads spread Lumma Stealer within days of release

Fake pirated copies of "The Odyssey" appeared within days of the film's release carrying Lumma Stealer, an information stealer developed in Russia and sold to other criminals as a service that can harvest crypto wallet data, passwords, payment details and authentication cookies from Windows machines, Bitdefender said. The malicious files were disguised as 1080p, WEBRip and Blu-ray releases and used .exe programs that could be masked with video-style icons while Windows hides known file extensions by default. Bitdefender said it blocked the downloads and traced command-and-control activity to auditva[.]cyou, myroayy[.]cyou and logmabx[.]click. The findings suggest Lumma-linked operations continued after a May 2025 U.S. crackdown in which the Justice Department seized five domains, Microsoft targeted about 2,300 others in civil court, and FBI court filings cited at least 1.7 million information-theft cases, including theft of crypto seed phrases.
