This FAKE Fortnite Skin Changer Virus installed itself into System32? Today I look at Galaxy Swapper, a fake fortnite skin swapper that claims to be able to give you free skins in fortnite, but is a total scam that steals your session cookies and hijacks a YouTube channel if you have one.

Fortnite skin swapper's / changers are inherently dangerous because they require administrator access to your computer, and are made by questionable third parties. This file is clearly a virus that is quite persistent, hiding itself on your computer in the C:\windows\system32 folder.

System32 is a folder containing essential windows libraries and executables, not a virus despite what some trolls on sites like 4chan try to claim. However in this case a virus has installed itself into system32, which shocked me.

This video was created to educate and inform about the risks of malware. I strongly discourage anyone from running any type of game hacks or cracks, or installing a skin changer. These files are very high risk, and can lead to malware infections. Stealer malware such as this one can also compromise banking and other important access on your computer.
