Global Law Enforcement Freezes $47M in Crypto, Dismantles Three Malware Families in Operation Endgame

According to Europol, on Wednesday law enforcement froze more than €41 million (approximately $47 million) in criminal cryptocurrency assets as part of Operation Endgame. The two-week, multi-country strike dismantled infrastructure behind three malware families—SocGholish, Amadey, and StealC—that steal passwords and crypto wallet data to fuel fraud and ransomware attacks.

Police took down 326 servers and 142 domains, recovered nearly 27 million stolen credentials from over 385,000 compromised systems, and cleaned approximately 15,000 infected websites. Microsoft, a partner in the operation, found Amadey and StealC linked to over 140,000 infected computers worldwide in May alone.
