We are proud to have played a pivotal role in "Operation DISTANTHILL" alongside the Singapore Police Force, Hong Kong Police Force, and Royal Malaysia Police. Together, we successfully nabbed cyber fraud syndicates behind a notorious Android Remote Access Trojan (RAT) campaign that wreaked havoc in Singapore and Hong Kong in 2023.

After months of intensive data collection and analysis, Group-IB uncovered the vast network used by these cybercriminals, leading to their arrest. More than 4,000 victims were defrauded across Southeast Asia. Among them, the Singapore police recorded 1,899 related cases in 2023 with a total loss of more than US$25 million.
