Victims whose head office state could be confirmed, in states with at least 3 located victims. Smaller states are left out so no organisation can be picked out.

Where it comes from

Russia or Eastern Europe (evidence: moderate)

Japanese-style name, but language, activity hours and negotiations point to Russian and Eastern European operators; at least one server traced to Russia. Likely a rebrand of Lynx.
