A walkthrough of reverse-engineering a fake VPN sponsorship offer to uncover hidden malware payloads.
I was approached by a sketchy sponsor offering big bucks to feature their “100% free VPN.” But it turns out this shady software, SurfNet.pro, is a full-blown piece of malware—completely undetected by VirusTotal! In this video, I walk you through exactly how I reverse-engineered their code, reveal the hidden payloads, and show why they tried so hard to bribe YouTubers. If you’re even thinking about trying this “free VPN” or taking their sponsorship offer… watch this first. You won’t believe what I found inside!
