The Genesis Solutions/Genesis Venture Pvt. Ltd., Pakistani scammers hit by MEMZ trojan

Earlier today, I was tipped on a video by the YouTuber “Scambaiter” on a fraudulent call center that impersonates American telecommunications providers such as Comcast/Xfinity or AT&T/DirecTV. The company was identified as The Genesis Solutions and operates out of Suite 301, 3rd Floor, Building C, 71/D, 12th Commercial Street, Phase 2 Commercial Area, Defense Housing Authority, Karachi, Sindh, 75500, Pakistan.

The company was co-founded by Sunny George and Shawn Khan Honey. Honey also serves as the host of the “Shawn Khan Podcast,” which according to his YouTube channel is “dedicated to bringing you face-to-face with some of the most influential figures in the entrepreneurial world and beyond.”

How their scam works is simple:

  • The scammers will make and accept calls using ViciDial, pose as an agent with an American telecommunications company and falsely claim their victims can receive a discount on their monthly bill.
  • The scammers will try to collect the payment information of their victims during the call so they can be charged through a third-party vendor.
  • The payment information may also be used for personal gain, such as to purchase premium memberships to Tinder.
  • The scammers will then demand more money from their previously-scammed victims under the guise of a “Christmas offer.”

Once “Scambaiter” got all the information on the scammers, he decided to fuck with them by

  • Waking some scammers up while they are on CCTV.
  • Destroying the scammers’ computers with the MEMZ trojan, which replaces the Master Boot Record with a Nyan Cat.
  • Recording their reactions to the MEMZ trojan via their own webcams.
  • Calling them out directly via WhatsApp.

CORRECTION: I first thought this bait was done by Nanobaiter, but it turns out it was done by the YouTuber “Scambaiter.”
