Fake AI 'Nudify' Sites Reportedly Linked to Malware Distribution by Russian Hacker Collective FIN7
The hacker group FIN7 is allegedly behind fake AI "nudify" websites distributing infostealer malware to users, according to an investigation by Silent Push. These sites are reported to lure individuals seeking deepfake AI tools into downloading malware disguised as software to "nudify" photos. The malware steals sensitive data from victims, which is used for extortion or financial fraud. FIN7's activity on this front reportedly marks the revival of a group previously declared defunct by the U.S. Department of Justice.
