The developer of Between us, a social intuition crime game that has quickly become one of the most popular multiplayer titles of the year, is currently battling a particularly harmful spam attack. The spam is promoting a mysterious online handle, “Eris Loris,” and it got bad enough that Between us The InnerSloth studio had to do emergency maintenance last night.
Hacking and other forms of fraud Between us The game has become a popular online pastime since last summer’s pandemic, according to a report by Kotaku. And Between us has only attracted more attention in the past few days after a hugely successful Twitch stream from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), along with high profile streamers, promoted voting in the upcoming US election.
But only yesterday did the players experience the spam “Eris Loris” in their online games. Developer InnerSloth said Thursday it was “super duper on the current hacking problem” and would be releasing an emergency server update to try to fix it.
The spam attack started some time on Thursday when players discovered that their in-game chat logs were filled with messages promoting Loris’ YouTube channel. Some messages threatened users to hack their personal devices if they did not log in. Other news promoted both the YouTube channel and President Donald Trump.
ONE Eurogamer The report released today includes an interview with the supposed creator of the spam attack on Discord. The hacker claims to have recruited dozens of others to participate by contributing servers, although it is unclear exactly how the hackers manage to spam so many games at once.
The ultimate goal seems to be to promote Eris Loris’s YouTube channel which advertises hacks and other game scam services. The spam attack may have hit up to 1.5 million games and hit nearly 5 million players, if the hackers’ claims are to be believed. Loris is also a self-described Trump supporter, the report said.
Whatever actually happens here Between us Players are undoubtedly bombarded with some kind of highly coordinated attack that puts the game at risk. According to Forest Willard, the developer of InnerSloth, the emergency server update was released sometime in the middle of the night. This affected running games and led to possible false positives. However, it is unclear whether the issue has since been resolved or whether InnerSloth is planning future maintenance to address the issue. Player on Twitter continue to report Eris Loris-related spam in the game.
