Steam Game Malware Scams Crypto Wallets, Cybercriminal Group Behind the Attack

Cybercriminals are exploiting Steam games to steal cryptocurrencies. The game Chemia, previously available on Steam, was infected with three malware programs: Hijack Loader, Fickle Stealer, and Vidar Stealer. These malicious tools were used to extract passwords, browser data, and seed phrases from crypto wallets, including MetaMask. The attack was carried out by the hacker group EncryptHub (Larva-208). Although the game has been removed from Steam, this is not an isolated incident; earlier, hackers targeted games like Sniper: Phantom’s Resolution and PirateFi.
