"S4!\T M4L4C#!", or simply "Malachi", is the codename for a notorious Black hat hacker and a shadowy figure in the world of cybercrime. An anonymous "digital prophet" who operates as both a freelance hacker and cybersecurity breacher, Malachi is also a secret member of the extremist Christian cyberterrorist group, the #PURIFIERS.

Known for targeting those who violate the Ten Commandments, particularly murderers, thieves, adulterers, and blasphemers, Malachi's exploits have left a trail of chaos and financial ruin in his wake.

History

"firstJudgment.exe" Incident

In the annals of hacking history, few events are as notorious—or bizarre—as the release of "firstJudgment.exe", the first major malicious program unleashed in the early days of the millennium by Malakai. A self-proclaimed "digital prophet," Malakai claimed the program was not just malware but a "h0ly r3ck0n1n6 f0r 7h3 51nful."

On December 31, 1999, as the world nervously awaited the Y2K crisis, an entirely different digital catastrophe began spreading across early internet forums, chain emails, and file-sharing networks like shitster.de and Bizaar. firstJudgment.exe masqueraded inside music files, wallpapers, porn, and movie downloads, and installed itself secretly on the victims computer. It laid dormant until the turn of the millennium, where it unleashed chaos.

As the New Year began, victims’ screens displayed rapid, strobing images of the Crucifixion of Christ interspersed with ominous biblical passages like "Wh0 w1ll surv1v3 th3 r3ck0n1ng 0f h1s 4rr1v4l?" and “1 w1ll 3v3n 53nd 4 cur53 up0n y0u”. Within 48 hours, firstJudgment.exe had spread to an estimated 800,000 computers across 50 countries. News outlets described it as a “digital plague,” with its effects ranging from mild inconvenience to severe harm and over 3,000 deaths from seizures.
