Fake ChatGPT site spreads data stealing malware on Windows, Mac

A fake ChatGPT download website (`openew.app`) is infecting Windows and Mac users with malware aimed at stealing sensitive data. Windows users receive a credential-stealing loader, while Mac users are targeted by Atomic Stealer (AMOS), a malware platform for cryptocurrency theft. Both payloads are designed to mimic the legitimate ChatGPT download experience, with a convincing website layout and dual-platform options.

The operation capitalizes on the high traffic generated by users searching for AI software, making it easy to deploy similar scams as new AI products emerge. Users are advised to only download ChatGPT from official channels and take immediate action if they suspect they have downloaded from this site.
