Credential-stealing crew spoofs VPN clients

A cybercrime group known as Storm-2561 is using fake VPN clients to steal user credentials. The group manipulates search results to push malicious websites to the top, which then redirect users to a GitHub repository hosting the fake VPN clients. The fake clients capture usernames and passwords, then prompt users to download the legitimate VPN client, effectively hiding their tracks. Microsoft recommends enforcing multi-factor authentication and not storing workplace credentials in browsers or password vaults secured with personal credentials.
