SUBJECT PROFILE
PRODAFT disclosed on July 25, 2026 that DevMan (tracked as Funky Mantis) operated a highly sophisticated RaaS portal functioning as a full 'CRM for extortion' — integrating payload building, victim lifecycle management, affiliate team creation, automated profit sharing, and victim chat. DevMan emerged in April 2025 as a multi-RaaS affiliate (Qilin, DragonForce, Apos, RansomHub) before pivoting to its own operation, claiming 184 victims before going dark after February 4, 2026 following a doxxing incident by whistleblower 'GangExposed.' LARVA-367 is a former member of Phantom Mantis (The Gentlemen's affiliate cluster) with suspected but unconfirmed infrastructure overlap with The Gentlemen RaaS.
