      Yeah, (O)OP is such a rookie they probably call it Homework, which is a well-known trick. The correct stealth strategy is a directory called linux_malware_test_vm_imgs containing archives such as

        Back in the 90s I had a Zip disk labeled homework with porn on it. My little brother had a similar disk, but he kept it in his underwear drawer and got caught. Then our dad locked down our AOL accounts. I didn’t find this fair, so I installed a keylogger, grabbed my dad’s password, and unlocked my account.

        My parents were not amused when I told them about this 20 years later when I found out my dad was still using the same password for his wifi.
