Python-Based WhatsApp Worm — Because Apparently, the Internet Wasn’t Broken Enough Already

Oh, for fuck’s sake, here we go again. Some clever little bastard decided Python wasn’t just for data science and bad AI demos — no, they’ve cooked up a shiny new WhatsApp worm that’s spreading faster than gossip in an office with free coffee. It’s targeting poor Brazilian sods, hijacking their apps, and puking out links like an overexcited bot-on-steroids.

This digital pile of shit uses WhatsApp Web sessions to send messages that trick victims into clicking on malicious links — and bam! They get infected with something called the Eternidade Stealer. Sounds dramatic, right? Because it bloody well is. It slurps up everything: passwords, banking details, crypto, whatever you’ve got lying around in that dumpster you call a device. Then it exfiltrates your secrets like it’s the goddamn Mission: Impossible of data theft.

And yeah, as usual, people are falling for it because social engineering never dies, it just gets new emojis. So now we’ve got Python-based malware cozying up to WhatsApp, peddling malware links like some sleazy digital door-to-door salesman. You’d think after all these years, users would stop clicking random bullshit, but no — that “update your app” message still gets them every single fucking time.

So what’s the moral of the story? Stop clicking everything that looks even slightly shiny, and maybe, just maybe, don’t trust a message that suddenly wants to gift you the moon. Or, screw it — click away, spread the chaos, and give malware authors more data to roll around in. They’re clearly having the time of their lives.

Reminds me of the time some idiot in accounting clicked “Enable Macros” on a random invoice and took down half the damn intranet. Good times. Good times.
