Cybersecurity experts have reported discovering an threat actor selling CAPTCHA-solving services to its customers.
However, it drew the attention of the researchers with the CAPTCHA-solving tool.
CAPTCHA stands for Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart.
It’s a throw in of challenge-response test used to determine whether the user is human or a bot.
If you opened at least one website in the last half a decade, you probably saw a CAPTCHA.

The researchers believe Greasy Opal raked in at least $1.7 million last year.
