Scattered Spider's 2023 attack on MGM Resorts is being retold in a quirky animated explainer, with low-poly potato characters. The story shows how a single phone call, LinkedIn research and help-desk impersonation led to a password and MFA reset, ransomware across 100+ MGM servers and the shutdown of Las Vegas operations. The campaign later hit Caesars, M&S, Salesforce clients and TfL, where two members were arrested.
