The Y2K Operators are running a social-engineering distribution campaign that spreads Millenium RAT through booby-trapped downloads, exposing users to remote compromise and data theft. The operation has already reached over 60,000 Windows devices in more than 160 countries, with most infections concentrated in the first three months of 2026. Its lure set of game cheats, cracked software, and hacking tools gives the campaign broad reach across user communities. The low-cost malware-as-a-service model makes the operation accessible to less-skilled attackers and increases downstream abuse risk.
