The ultimate goal seems to be to promote the Eris Loris YouTube channel, which promotes hacking and other gaming fraud services. Spam attacks attack 1.5 million games and can affect nearly 5 million players if you believe in hackers’ claims. Loris is also a self-proclaimed Trump supporter, the report said.
