BlackCat’s Catastrophic Curtain Call: Ransomware Gang’s $5 Million Exit Scam Spectacle

In a twist worthy of a Hollywood heist movie, the BlackCat ransomware gang is allegedly pulling the ultimate switcheroo, trading their hacker hats for runners’ sneakers as they exit-scam into the sunset—with affiliates’ cash in tow. Cue the “FBI” ruse and a $5 million malware…

Hot Take:

Looks like the BlackCat ransomware gang might be on its ninth life, pulling the ultimate “it wasn’t me, it was the feds” card. While they're at it, they’re trying to sell their malware's secret sauce for a cool $5 million. I guess even cybercriminals aren’t immune to the old bait and switch—or should we say byte and switch? 🐱‍💻🚔
