Looks like a lot of viruses Trojans IMO. If they bury the files in a lot of zipped folders I think they're trying to avoid antivirus detection. Send files to virus total
I second this. Scan everything before unzipping, and if you can know what the target files should contain beforehand.
Honestly, in 20 years of using Macs, I have never had to worry about viruses
Had to? No. Should have, especially when extracting unknown files with a weird structure? Absolutely. BSD malware very much exists, which means Mac malware exists. You may have not felt the need to worry, but you very much should have been careful.
Wow. I got this from a private tracker. From an invite from someone else in this community.
