Bitdefender Labs tracked a malvertising campaign running fake Claude Code documentation through Google-sponsored ads, with the macOS payload dropping a Mach-O backdoor sporting AMOS-style anti-sandbox checks that harvests browser credentials and crypto wallet data the moment victims paste the ClickFix terminal one-liner. Windows visitors catch Trojan.Stealer.GJ via the same copy-paste trick. Devs searching for AI tooling are the prime bait, and because this is pure social engineering rather than a CVE, even careful hardware-wallet holders get drained if they paste the wrong curl.
