UNC1069 GhostCall cryptocurrency social-engineering campaign
Campaign
Summary
Hide ▲
Show ▼
UNC1069 is actively targeting the cryptocurrency sector with a social-engineering campaign designed to steal credentials and data for financial theft. The operation uses compromised Telegram accounts, fake Zoom meetings, and a ClickFix infection vector to lure victims into a malicious trust-and-download flow. In some cases, the lure layer is reinforced with AI-generated video and deepfake-style footage to keep the call illusion convincing. The campaign has expanded across Windows and macOS and now drives multiple payloads that harvest browser data, session tokens, and iCloud Keychain credentials.
