The FBI has arrested Zyaire Dontaevious Zamarion Wilkins, a 21-year-old resident of Florida, for allegedly distributing malware through Steam games, which led to the theft of over $200,000 in cryptocurrency. Wilkins, along with two unnamed co-conspirators, is accused of embedding malware in games available on a popular digital distribution platform for video games. The malware was reportedly downloaded onto approximately 8,000 PCs. The group targeted individuals with significant cryptocurrency holdings by promoting their games on platforms like Discord, Telegram, X, and LinkedIn. The FBI's investigation revealed that the stolen funds were used to purchase over 150 gift cards, some of which were linked to UberEats orders associated with Wilkins' university email address.
