Title and article are kinda word salad. Simple English summary:

Hackers convinced users to install copies of ChatGPT extensions that had been infected with malware. This article covers how the hackers promoted the extensions, the data that they stole, and where that data went to.

To be fair, it did use the API for chatgpt, but that was a very small part of the extension. Really interesting to see how sophisticated these can be made so quickly.

Oh, I somehow missed that part in the article. Thanks for pointing it out.

EDIT: Actually, just reread and I can't find that information in the page. Can you point it out to me, or is there another outside source for it?

EDIT 2: Found a source. Thanks for the info, I'll update my summary.
