Europol, FBI, and European police conducted “Operation Endgame” targeting cybercriminals. Chinese national YunHe Wang was arrested for hacking 19 million computers and selling access to criminals. The software was used for fraud, bomb threats, and other crimes. Wang faces charges for running a complex cybercriminal network. Criminals used the software for various crimes, causing losses of $5.9 billion. Arrests were made in Singapore and Europe, with luxury items seized. Europol called it the largest operation against botnets, which infect computers with malware. This operation involved multiple European countries and took down known botnets. Danish police played a key role, dismantling the criminal ecosystem. Some individuals linked to the network remain at large. The FBI highlighted the impact on critical infrastructure and global attacks.
