Plump Spider is a financially motivated cybercrime threat actor associated with Latin America, particularly Brazil. The group has been linked to campaigns that impersonate trusted Brazilian institutions, including government-themed entities, to deliver infostealers and web-based credential theft tooling against victims in Brazil. Reporting places Plump Spider among the major financially motivated operators active in the Latin American threat landscape. Plump Spider has been associated with infrastructure overlaps and recurring tradecraft involving abuse of Brazilian hosting providers, fake government-themed web properties, and malware delivery chains designed to steal credentials, browser cookies, and session data. Observed operations used Delphi- and Electron-based malware components, persistence through Windows autorun mechanisms and login-item settings, HTTPS command-and-control communications that tolerate invalid certificates, and tasking frameworks for remote payload delivery and execution. Related tooling has included browser-focused credential theft, keylogging, user-activity monitoring, and exfiltration of victim data. The actor has also been linked to JavaScript-based web stealers and man-in-the-browser activity targeting Brazilian online services. Observed scripts were capable of stealing cookies, form data, and browser storage contents, dynamically loading additional payloads, and spoofing legitimate portals to capture or relay sensitive information. High-confidence reporting ties these operations to financially motivated objectives rather than espionage or destructive activity.
