FaceStealer TTPs: meeting invites from hijacked contacts, replayed webcam video of real victims, and a fake 'can't hear you' fix that installs malware

  • Detect: meeting-related 'fix' downloads or pasted commands right after a call; new video-conference lookalike domains in DNS/proxy logs; messaging or social accounts sending meeting links the owner didn't send.
  • Scope: on a confirmed victim, assume long dwell time: rotate wallet keys, repo tokens and SSH keys, and review account sessions going back months.
  • Source of record: the FBI FLASH linked from fbi.gov/facestealer.
