A 39-year-old Albanian national known as 'Venom' was extradited to France after being arrested in Greece in November 2025 as part of Operation Endgame. The arrest followed an investigation into his involvement in developing a Remote Access Trojan (RAT) malware called VenomRAT. Authorities traced his digital activities across three continents, beginning with Australian investigations in 2022. His capture involved a raid by Greek cybercrime officers alongside FBI and French police.
