This episode of Digital Desperados exposes Alexander Zhukov, aka "Nastra," the King of Fraud. Nastra wasn't your average hacker. He started young, hustling on the streets before moving on to online scams. In the 2010s, he created MethBot, a program generating fake website visits to inflate ad revenue for his fake advertising company, Media Methane.
When that got heat, Nastra's team developed the even nastier 3VE malware. This invisible enemy infected computers through phishing emails and ran in the background, secretly generating fake ad views for Nastra's profit. Nastra's scheme raked in millions before his arrest, but a slap-on-the-wrist sentence and potential hidden riches might mean he's not done yet. The story serves as a chilling reminder: online dangers lurk everywhere. Protect you and your loved ones with SaferNet, a VPN and internet security suite, to fight back against digital desperados. Stay safe and don't click on suspicious links!
