Europol and US authorities collaborated to dismantle a $6bn cybercrime operation, arresting a Chinese national and seizing luxury goods. The botnet, allegedly run by YunHe Wang, spread ransomware through infected emails, resulting in $5.9bn in fraudulent claims. Coordinated police action across multiple countries led to arrests, server takedowns, and domain seizures. The operation, codenamed Endgame, targeted major malware families, signaling a crackdown on cybercriminals.
