Likely operating out of Brazil, LofyGang appears to be an organized crime group focused on multiple hacking activities, including credit card data theft and Discord premium upgrades, as well as the hacking of games and streaming service accounts.

LofyGang has been observed abusing multiple public cloud services for command and control (C&C) purposes, including Discord, GitHub, glitch, Heroku, and Repl.it, creating sock-puppet accounts using a closed dictionary of names (slight permutations of evil, devil, lofy, polar, panda, kakau, and vilão).
