Seven individuals (six Chinese nationals and one Singaporean) were arrested in Singapore in coordinated raids tied to an alleged global cybercrime syndicate; law enforcement seized electronic devices with hacking tools (including PlugX-related controller software), unauthorized personal data, server credentials, S$ cash and USD cryptocurrency. The operation involved around 160 officers and the evidence indicates capability for malware-driven intrusions and data theft, but authorities have not publicly attributed the suspects to a specific APT and investigations are ongoing.
