Beware of Malware in Pirated Windows 10 Downloads

Hackers are distributing pirated Windows 10 ISOs that contain clipper malware hidden in the EFI partition, which can potentially bypass malware detections. The malware replaces cryptocurrency wallet addresses on-the-fly with addresses under the attacker's control, redirecting payments to their accounts and making them at least $19,000 worth of cryptocurrency. Users should avoid downloading pirated software as they can be dangerous and contain persistent malware.
