However, in the installer of this VPN Pro software, hackers have attached trojans. If you download and activate the installer, the trojan will spread on the system. According to security experts' analysis, the installer will continue to use AutoHotKey scripts to download several types of trojans, including Vidar and CryptBot.

This AutoHotKey script is designed so that when launched, it can send information to a malicious address named iplogger.org and then download the Vidar and CryptBot executables depending on the attack being in progress. Distributed on site.

Once the trojans are downloaded successfully, they will immediately launch and collect various types of information in the victim's system and send it to the attacker's server. Data stolen by trojans can include browser credentials, cookies, screenshots, text files, e-wallets, and many other types of sensitive personal information.
