MODERATORS
Wow, what a trick! Much exploit!
"deceived victims into running PowerShell as an administrator and pasting in malicious code"
Once again, people are the weakest link.
Vaguely interesting delivery method. Spearphishing emails with an attached PDF with the instructions and the code to copy paste in it. Claims that it's the way to "register windows". Maybe putting it in a PDF bypasses email filtering?
