That's not the only account used for this scam.
The scammer has used at least 8 other accounts for posting link to that malware.

Looks like a hacked account, though. It was used to post malware in 2020 too - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5182222.msg55090568#msg55090568

Good move to have it banned for now

Anybody who has a GitHub account can report this profile (https://github.com/BitcointalkWallet-project). It was created 2 days ago. I have reported it.

I guess the question is why have all the other accounts that have posted the malware not been banned?
Usually they get banned / nuked when they are posting things like that but users on the list that hosseinimr93 posted are all still here?

Or is it more the altcoin sections that bans for malware wallets are quick.

Reported to github. Looks like this is the new whack a mole.

I just checked their profile on BPIP.
5 out of the 8 accounts I mentioned above have been banned. nemruth (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1067299), Atrain622 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1696124) and lhfly5201314 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1214748) haven't been banned and should be still able to make post in the forum.

Since I happened to come across this thread, I checked it briefly.
Also these three users are currently banned.

I thought they haven't been banned, because that's not recorded neither on modlog nor BPIP.
nemruth and Atrain622 made post on February 2. Since modlog keeps the data for the past 7 days, their ban should be shown on modlog. It's weird that modlog doesn't show that.

Why this is not displayed on various pages or logs, I can not answer :)

Reported Done, dude

I hope the GitHub teams will review my report and ban the publisher's account as soon as possible.

It is good that most of the accounts of these scammers have been banned from the forum, and I hope that members will not stop reporting their topics if they create new accounts.

They created this wallet that contains Malware to target and hack the accounts of Bitcointalk members and their devices and steal their wallets, so in my experience, doing a system scan through an antivirus program for the device of someone who downloaded this wallet is useless. He must disconnect the Internet immediately, install a new Windows system, and download a program to freeze the system.
